I have no idea why anyone would be running 20-50 in there vehicle. I have 174,000 on my 850 turbo and have run 10-30 all the time and I'm in the midsouth. Hot humid summers. Even my Suburban I still run 5-30. Never had any problems. I wonder if you are blowing oil out somewhere as your driving. I'd only run 20-50 in motorcyles and that was before water cooling. You'll probably notice your gas mileage getting better if you change back to a 10-30
