Default Millers oil

With the winter looking like another cold one this year ( doom and gloom )
Would the millers cfs 5w40 be better than the 10w40 running front mount ,Decat and remap blob wagon I know there's loads of threads on best oils ect bet not sure about cold weather protection

The 10/40 would be fine, however, if you're ready for an oil change then the 5/40 is a good choice.

5W40 will circulate quicker when it's cold outside.

As above, the 5w will flow better from cold. When hot the 5w-40 and 10w-40 are the same viscosity.

Cheers
