Well, thank you both. It's probably more important what thickness is the oil at operating temperature than the outside temperature. As long as the engine works ilas it should there is no reason for concern I suppose. Thank you (As for my English I  would apologize, I don't use google translate because I ROFL if I try and see the final result of translation  ::) )

No worry neighbour, google translator can be edited by anybody that leads some really extreme translations. Once I tried a multiple translating from and to English with a simple sentence and the second result was that I was in a sexual act with a bus. Although I just tried to "get off".  :y :y :y

Your English is fine, really - given the date & time of Chris' post, it probably was him who was drunk ;)

But yes, viscosity (thickness) at operating temperature is important, but so is the oil not being too thick at 'Winter' rating - it seems to me (without seeing the actual oil, of course) that the GM oil is probably performing better there, and what you're seeing is overly thick non-GM oil at -5C :)
