From reading a lot of posts here on BITOG, Sludge / varnish is very common in most engines (even with shorter OCI with full synthetic oils).

For countries without those regs, like Australia, the manual for the same engine specifies MANY weights without the message to switch back. From 0w-20 to 0w-16 one gets about 1% better mileage. It took a while to engineer the oil, but it is rated for the same service. 1% might amount to about 0.3 miles/gal more.2nd hand Ariel Atoms are coming down to that price range, and handle as well as or better than both the Elise AND Caterfield already mentioned.

Seafoam is a very low viscosity solvent that will thin the oil if the whole can is dumped in. I think what mdocod is saying as well as myself is that thinning an oil below a 20 weight will cause the lubricating film to thin and shear such that the coefficient of friction will increase dramtically, causing increased wear.
