No need to worry about oil viscosity and warranties. In fact, you could be doing harm by not running 40W oil. Look in the owners manual for viscosity and as long as the temps fall in the range of the weight you use, warrantee can't say schiznt about it. 15w40 is listed as severe duty, and driving in 90* temps in the city qualifies as severe duty.

I appreciate the sarcasm... I really do. But I'm just the guy who really Iiked cutting open filters and posting the pics.
Expert? hardly... well read, has his own opinion and is sarcastic AF? Yeah, all day bro.
I still want to order that PPE 6.7 filter to sacrifice it for the 2124 thread. Still will at one point...

In @FishOnOne 's original 2124 thread, IIRC someone did the math on the oval versus the round holes and there was more area with the oval holes for what was already mentioned, more flow.

That wasn't sarcasm! That was honest appraisal!
