0w20 Vs 5w20 Toyota Tundra

Not that much of a difference between a 0W or 5W20.

Theres a thread about it. 0w-20 works just fine 5w-20 down to -20 degrees 5w-30 works good just it will. Joined Mar 4 2008.

It will never be -30C in Florida. Due to the higher tolerance of modern engine maybe Toyota do have a point at specing a 0w oil for cold winter temps. Personally Id switch to the 0w20 unless their is a huge price differential or you have a stash of 5w20 you need to get rid of.

Both oils are rated as a 20 weight oil at operating temp. Whats the difference between SAE 0W-20 and 5W-20 motor. The 0W wont thicken up as much when it cools down as the 5W will so little better start up flow the 0W will flow a ltiile quicker.

Bottom line 5W20 will work. So you may be wondering how they differ. Same here I have a Lexus RX350 and ironically between the 85 qts for the Tundra and the 65 qts for the Lexus I use exactly 15 qts total when I change the oil for both cars.
