[QUOTE="Creedence85, post: 310395, member: 4346"] Has anyone talked to the dealer and found out if there's an alternate spec for street use like with the C7? The whole point of a 0w40 is to get the cold temp flow rate for startup protection with the high temp flow rate for track driving conditions so you can use one oil for both conditions, but street driving is rarely going to get close to this. In the C7 from 2014 to 2018 the recommended spec for street was 5w30, for track was 15w50, then in 2019 they updated to 0w40 so you didn't have to change, but 5w30 would work just as well on the street as it had before.
