Πρόκειται για κωδικούς που έχουν να κάνουν με το ιξώδες. Δεν μεταφράζονται. Συνήθως τα βρίσκουμε και με παύλα, π.χ. 20W-50.

The viscosity grade (for example, 5W-30) tells you the oil's thickness, or viscosity. A thin oil has a lower number and flows more easily, while thick oils have a higher number and are more resistant to flow. Water has a very low viscosity -- it is thin and flows easily. Honey has a very high viscosity -- it is thick and gooey.

Νίκο, καταλαβαίνω τι λες. Δεν είμαι σίγουρη όμως ότι αυτά πάνε αναλογικά. Πιστεύω ότι θέλει να τονίσει τη μεγάλη γκάμα ξεκινώντας από τα φθηνά mineral oils έως τα ακριβά (και καλύτερα) συνθετικά. Μόνο ο πελάτης της Ευτυχίας γνωρίζει σίγουρα. Μια ερώτηση δε βλάπτει :)
