Default Another oil thread

I recently changed my oil and filter using shell helix 5w 30. Noticed the other morning when it was really cold outside some piston slap. Will dropping my oil again and using 10w 40 be of any benifit? Euro carparts got good offers on so will do it weekend if it will help. Car is a 2004 wrx mapped on carberry rom
