10w-40 Oil in 16v? - cosmic_splatter - 07-28-2014 fixkick I read in the suzuki forums that someone recommended against running 10w-40 oil in a 16v engine. Have you heard this? I was going to run mobil 1 10-40 high mileage fully synthetic oil you can buy at wally world for about $23. I wanted to ensure there was no issue with this oil since most of my driving will be in weather that is 50F-102F. thanks, John RE: 10w-40 Oil in 16v? - fixkick - 07-28-2014 the 40 only happens when way too hot, so??? why would that be bad.? sure , in siberia they run 0w... 50f is warm weather. the 16v and 1.8L both ask for better oil.
