Yeah, the Cologne V6 4.0L was always 5W-30. Anything you run in it by a major oil company will be fine. Personally I'd use a syn like Pennzoil Plat or Mobil 1 on rebate. A 0W-30 would also work fine, but as a winter oil...

Quote For clarity, Castrol's price point is higher than Mobil's (perhaps at the moment)--but that does not equate to Castrol being "worse" than Mobil from a quality perspective. \Well, I didn't say Castrol was "worse". I questioned their lineup as a whole and their dodgy marketing, product...

I would just use a quality synthetic 5W-30 oil for most of the year. If you really want something thicker, I'd go 0W/5W-40 full syn in summer months...

Sounds like you would have been better off renting from a reputable apartment building. There have been a couple times where if I'm sure I'm gonna be stiffed on the security deposit I just tell them to keep it for last months rent and I'll be out in 30. If they have any problems with this, they...

OP: there is nothing wrong with your choice, QSUD is an excellent oil and I like the Quaker State lineup in general if nothing for the nostalgia of it all. But it seems like a bit of a false choice, or false decision, when you can also bundle Mobil 1 and get a $12 rebate for each jug. There's...

The nearest Advance Auto has some Amsoil products, probably from their Carstadts lineage. Not sure if they carry the oils or just the motorsports stuff. Some NAPA's also carry them, the locally owned ones...
