i agree that synthetic oil is vastly superior to "dino oil", but Beav is right---your seals had better be good because the synthetic oil will leak right through 'em. i used Mobil 1 in my 928 and it started leaking oil like the Exxon Valdez. back to regular Castrol, and it settled down a bit.

BTW, the UPC code on a case of Mobil 1 is apparently just for 1 quart. bought a case at a local dept. store and a spaced out teenager scanned it and proceded to charge me $4.xx for the case. heh heh.
