Any issues running 0w30?

[Jake.Lowther]

So I've got around 7 litres of Shell Helix Ultra 0w30 fully synthetic Active Cleansing oil.

 

This stuff is around £17 a litre

 

It says it's for performance motors, anyone see any issues I'll have running it. I looked around doesn't seem anyone really runs 0w30. I've also got 5 litres of 5w30 fully synthetic as well. But this shell stuff is a lot more expensive and as long as it does no harm I would rather use it.

 

Pretty certain it'll be fine just wondered if someone else has ran theirs on something similar. I've got a DE btw, I'm going to use it unless someone can persuade me otherwise

As far as I am aware, a 0w30 and 5w30 will have the same viscosity at working temps.

At very cold start up the 0w30 will flow better than 5w30.

But you only see this advantage at below freezing temperatures so some would say the price premium may not be necessary as UK winters rarely hit such lows.

I can't imagine any adverse difference, only positive ones where temps are below freezing
