In my last used oil analysis (~5,000 miles), the M1 0W-40 was 12.0 cSt (66.4 SUS) whereas the same lab found virgin M1 10W-30 to be about 10 cSt (58.3 SUS). So I believe in most cases, after use, the M1 0W-40 will still be thicker than the xW-30 weights of Mobil 1.
I installed the German Castrol (GC) at this latest oil change, and so far, I like it. The engine seems to run a little smoother, especially at low (sub-turbo) rpm.
It will be interesting to see how well the GC holds its viscosity in my turbo, I'm guessing it will do this better than M1 0W-40.
