Oil Viscosity for the 2.0L i4 - Track Use

gcmak · Mar 25, 2025

How's 0w20 holding up on track? Has anyone experienced oil burning or sent off their oil for analysis after 1 or more events?
Related, has anyone gone up in viscosity, what did you move to and how's it been?

Sharing my break-in oil change analysis.
Will follow-up when I have a second one.

When I bought my I-4 a month ago, dealer service said their rep told them to use 0-40 in all cars (not just for track use), and I got a pic of the carton, Valvoline Full Synthetic European Vehicle, 852518. I have been using Motul 0-40 for years in track cars, so this sounded good to me and I am using the Valvoline in the Emira.
