2008 f1505.4l lariat best engine oil to use
So im sure this has been talked about for a long time now but im going to bring it up again.
So I was in the local service shop for a new pinion seal. while there I also had them change my oil for me I was at 2800 miles so what the heck I thought go ahead and change it they used 5w-30 instead of the 5w-20 my question is will this hurt the engine or would this grade oil do better in my truck it seems to run smoother and not as noisy any and all help or tips will be use full
p.s. I also go told that since they made a mistake that my next oil change will be free and they said it wont hurt the engine at all

rear pinion seal cost me like 135.98 here in Montana its artic temps here. so instead of me doing it on the ground with no garage I did it at the dealer I bought the truck from. I have extended warranty coverage and it cost me 200.00 for any drivetrain repair and the seal repair cost only 135.00 so I just paid the 135 to fix it
pinion seals are cheap 20 bucks tops and gear oil ant to bad in price either
plus labor and they changed rear gear oil to
so I did some reading and if the oil is suppose to be 5w-20 that means at temp the oil acts like a 20w and cold like a 5w if im right could be wrong
then the 5w-30 would be better in the summer and the 5w-20 would be best in the cold or do I have this all back a**wards
