The hot viscosity (the W30 number) is measured at 100C. These cars I think run the oil hotter, W30 is also a range of viscosities, so there are thick W30s and thin W30s. The 10W30 is most likely slightly thicker then 0 or 5W30 or can also be for 10W30. If this fixed your problem then the oil pressure is quite marginal, and the light will probably come back on as the oil ages and shears. I Stephen mentioned I would consider going with 5W40 and if the light STILL comees back on, try 5W50. I have used 5W40 in my 9-5 4 cyl for quite a while, car seems to like it.
