As read from another thread discuss about engine oil, we can only know if the engine oil are indeed good by oil analysis taken from  the used engine oil, where a through details, parameters are shown.

Yeap, UOA is good analysis. BITOG is EO kitab suci.

yes...

unlike Balance's 260hp
I got only 200hp, probably a lot less as almost 20 years old
no oil consumption. Castrol Edge 5W30 engine oil and expensive petrol
*
5w30 is the right EO for K series.

newer K24W requirement is 0W20 already due to tighter tolerance
but old already can move to thicker oil if start to consume oil

That's correct. But I would still stick with 5W30 oil where the cSt vicosity of 100C is closed to 0w20.

There were a lot of reported engine damage in US using 0w20

Now US dealers switch back to 5w30

I reckon the problem is US service intervals are based on the 7,500-mile, that is roughly 12k km

same oil pan cannot la long run unless the car mostly all freeway. US lot of cars clock up the mileage due to heavy freeway usage.

Just stick with 5w30.
There is another perfect bitog EO which I am using currently.
