While it is generally recommended to stick to the oil viscosity recommended by the manufacturer, in some cases, using a different viscosity can provide better performance depending on the climate and driving conditions. However, make sure to do thorough research and consult a trusted mechanic before making the switch.

It is not recommended to use a different oil viscosity from what is recommended by the manufacturer. This can potentially lead to engine damage and void your warranty. It's better to stick with the recommended oil for optimal performance and longevity of your engine.

Using a different oil viscosity than recommended may not have any visible effects at first, but it can affect the overall performance and longevity of your engine in the long run. Stick to the manufacturer's recommendations for the best results.
