0w-40 oil OK in 945? 900

I recently picked up a '94 945 with 117K miles. In an effort to sort through cold-start problems, I've changed from the recommended 5w-30 dino to Mobil 1 0w-40. Perhaps Herr Ludwick or others can offer opinions on using 0w-40 synthetic. It's not in the recommended range of viscosity listed in the owner's manual. Bear in mind the car is in Vermont, and we've been enjoying two of Canada's favorite exports: Molson and -25F nights!
chris of the frigid north. 244, 765, 945, r100rs, etc.
