Hi Marcin, I don't know anything about oil either only the stuff I read on the internet
If you can get info about Q.Platinum 5W40's HTHS value and NOACK (some kind of volatility test value) and compare it to other oils, this will give you a better indication of if its better for your engine than another oil.
In the oil specs by Audi, BMW, Mercedes, etc, HTHS and NOACK values are very important in meeting the spec. Oil weights such as 30, 40, etc are pretty vague and don't really mean much.
