So far I like the results and have noticed less noise at startup etc. I have heard that this amsoil formula is not as well regarded as the older 10-40 offering. Living in coastal central CA will I have an issue using 10w40 weight synthetic in 01s in the future??

Thanks!
No, you will be fine with an ACEA A2, B3, B4 rated 10W-40 in that environment.....
