Pathfinder 2012 Oil weight for extreme hot climates
Posted: Mon Sep 25, 2017 4:32 pm
Hi
I am currently located in UAE where in the summer it reaches temperatures of 120F, My 2012 Pathfinders manual says 5W-30 for the engine oil but i don't feel that much comfortable with that oil weight when it gets that hot over here during the summer, I am planning to go with 40 weight oil on my next oil change but want to hear what you guys think ???.
Thanks in advance
