Default 10w-40 to slow oil consumption?

Hi folks, got a 2006 S60 2.5T with 205,000 miles. I've been running 10w-30 ever since I bought the car, and I'm using about a quart of oil every thousand miles. Will a slightly thicker oil slow down the consumption? I know the owner's manual allows for 5w-40, and I am in a warmer climate. Thanks.
