Hi A7novice

Agree with what has been said before with the proviso that once you start using SAE30, I’d carry on.  Putting 20W50 in a car that is used to SAE30 might ‘clean’ the engine too much and with only the sump mesh to filter it you may have problems.

My advice would be to seek pit the cheapest SAE 30 you can find.

Cheers

Howard
