Hi there, Im pretty noob and wanted to know if 5W-30 is better to protect the engine for long run?
I'm in Toronto, and I also heard that it is good to have different oil in summer and winter.
Cause I've heard that Subaru uses 0W20 is only for consumption reason.

PS: No engine mods, planning to keep the car for long run.
