<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV class=RTE>I changed my oil last week with some 5w30 ( it's getting cold out here ) on my 87 transporter. Now every time I slow down, like comming out of the highway, the oil buzzer comes on. Engine was rebuilt a year ago by vw dealer ( before I bought the van ). The buzzer never came on before this oil grade change, I usualy use 10W30 or 20W50 depending on temperature. What should I suspect? Should I just change back to 10w30. VW manual says it's OK to use 5w30 .</DIV> <DIV class=RTE> </DIV> <DIV class=RTE>Thanks</DIV> <DIV class=RTE> </DIV> <DIV class=RTE>Mathieu</DIV> <DIV class=RTE>86 weekender with 2.2L legacy engine</DIV> <DIV class=RTE>87 transporter</DIV></div></html>
