hi i have a 2016 kia sedona I did an oil change and instead of the 5w-30 it calls for i accidently bought 10w-30 would it make big enough difference to where i should change it or just do the next oil change a little sooner and put the right viscosity in thanks

If you lived in a warm climate like Florida I would say just leave it but since you are in New York in the middle of winter it might be a good idea to change it early.

Though it would not be the best thing for your motor I would suggest doing an oil change 1 thousand miles early next time and putting the right oil in it. But if possible the best option would of course be putting the right oil in now.
