I use 10w30, but Its better to switch to 5w30 for the winter right, cause Its thinner? Then you wouldnt clog your oil pump, I heard something about that, just wanted to check.

only if you're starting your car when its below freezing all the time. i've been running 10w-30 mobil1 on a 7afe for the past 3 years during chicago winters in temperatures below zero and havent had a problem.
