So, getting ready for an oil change I was at the store and forgot what grade oil my car took, so I ended up with 10-40 when it's supposed to be 5-30. Would there be any harm in using the 10-40, or should I go buy some more? It's a dodge.

I don't get oil changes. I just drive 'em til they die then buy new ones. Tahoes and Expeditions.

If it we're summer time, I would say go ahead and use the 10W-40 since it's a warmer climate oil. With winter coming on I would buy the 5W-30 which is more for colder weather. It may be tougher for your oil pump to push 10W which is thicker in cold temps.

10W-40 is questionable for the winter
I would get the 5W-30 and not take the risk ,,,, not worth the potential damage

With as rich as you are I would have figured you'd at least have some holdings in Exxon or something or perhaps occasionally trade WTI when the price is right.sleeper;993201 wrote:I don't buy oil.

You can use the 10W-40.
