On the Castrol site they are recommending 0W 30 Edge for the engine other members are saying different ?

I will be using Honda oil for the automatic gearbox, but that is next year.

On the Castrol site they recommend 0W30 Edge oil but other forum members advocate 5W30 As I do like Castrol oils I will be using the 0W30.

 Back in 2010 I changed the gearbox oil in my 2010 MX5 for Castrol 75W90 this made gear changes a lot smother and quieter. So if I had the manual Jazz this would one of the first oils I would change.

The handbook says that is Honda MTF is not available then 10W-30 or 10W-40 can be used as a temporary measure in the manual transmission. Well different from 75W-90.
The handbook states (page 286) that I can use 0W-20 to 10W-40 for the engine, although the 10W oils are not advised below -20°C.
