    Your right AUS, but viscosity VS temp is linear.. So it might not matter what it is at -18 deg Celcius, but it does matter at lets say 10 - 15 degrees (normal morning in Australia). So if viscosity of W is lets say 5 for oil X and 10 for oil Y but both oils have the same high temp viscosity, wouldnt there be a difference in the oil viscosity on start up??
