Stick with the recommended viscousity of 10W30.
I suggest you replace your PCV valve in your next service. Oil residue builds up in this and causes it to stick.
Stuck open = oil consumption
Stuck closed = seal blowouts
Only if you have worn rings does it make sense to move up to a thicker oil which will not burn off as readily. Trust me, your engine is still brand new.
