Doesn't hurt to talk to the oil change place and let them know of their mistake but nothing will happen to the engine from running with this weight oil.

OP-
If you were using this car as a race car then it might be a problem. If you were towing a trailer during this 600 mile trip it could be a slight issue. But for your car during this time of year driving normal highway speeds you will be fine.

Best advise.....IMO

Just keep an eye on the oil level to make sure you are not using it at a higher rate.

Are you the same one that agonized over this a couple of months ago?

DON'T WORRY.

Whopper needs to go change his oil now so thread closed
