I recently switched from Mobil 1 15W-50 to to 10W30 after an intermittent buzzer problem. The problem went from intermittent, ie 2500 rpm and lower rpm, to a virtually constant buzzing. I then switched to 20W-50 and in 4 hours of driving the buzzer went off once for 3 seconds. It appears that the system is quite system to changes in viscosity. These are my observations for what they are worth. JIseman457@aol.com |
