The Series 2000 0W-30 is a great oil. But if you live where it gets and stays hot all of the time (like southern Tejas), it has proven to be a little too thin for LSxes.
Now, for those of us in the northern tier states, in the dead of winter, there are not many better oils we can possibly use.

This is one of the reasons our engines 'like' (and so many on here swear by) the German Castrol, even though it is labeled a 0W-30 as well. It's '30 weight' is actually closer to a low 40 weight rating (in cSts). :wink:
