My Toyota Tundra Cold Start Test — 5W-30 Oil at 25°F Full Warm-Up

Описание: In this video, I do a real-world cold start and full warm-up test on my Toyota Tundra running 5W-30 oil on a 25°F cold morning. With all the debate around Toyota recommending 0W-20 in North America—but heavier viscosities like 5W-30 and 10W-30 in other global markets—this test shows what actually happens in real conditions.

Not theory — this is real-world testing for owners who care about long-term engine durability, not just warranty minimums. With the V35A platform and ongoing discussions around oil viscosity, this video adds practical data to the conversation.

If you’re already running 5W-30, considering switching, or just want to see how it behaves in cold weather, this video is for you.
