The 1st change is definitely SM. That is the exact add pack of their SM. No doubt about it.

I just did the PC on main amsoil website. It's been like 1.5 years since I ordered. PayPal works great for me.

Thx Pablo. Hey, I need to order some other AMSOIL stuff. Can I go through you for that? I'm an AMSOIL preferred customer so I'd to get that discount as well.

Lots of wrx peeps love thr t6 5w40 so thicker is not bad for this engine.. I vote Red Line 5w30 hands down here. I've ran both it & GC. The quicker spooling turbo from using Red Line is particularly noteworthy in my 09 Mazdaspeed 3 2.5l direct injected turbo. So much so after I drained it &...

Would Red Line 0w40 be ok? What about their 5w40? I'd really love the thinner 0w40 if it would be suitable? How about M1 0w40 Euro? No-go? Or German Casrol 0w30? I'm trying to go w/ that old "thin as possible, thick as necessary" addage. I think CATERHAM's got to me! Lol Which is better...

Lol. Ok thank yyou for that excellent advice! Wilco. Can I just use Mobil Delvac 1 ESP though?? I'd rather just buy oil at parts store here in town. I'll tell him to use the dealer oil u mentioned for his new Passat though. Thank u again!

Ok I'll go w/ the Delvac 1 ESP 5w40 if you guys are sure. This car was just given to my wife for her birthday/mother's day from her dad. My worry is that he's a bit of a stickler for following the dealer's orders & he's done the dealer oil at 10k miles (even on the 1st change) since brand new...

Delvac 1 or Delvac 1 ESP? Also is M1 5w30 ESP from Pep Boys acceptable?

Stick w/ the M1. It's a known quantity in ur engine w/ ur driving now. It has obviously kicked butt in this car. Plus there's something really cool about saying it has had M1 its whole life. Keep the pattern going. It's tradition now! Not a fan of the new Edge anyhow. LOVED the old stuff that...

Any 5w30 variantsof those or others? Is amsoil 5w30 hdd suitable at all or a no-go?

Just got an 06 VW TDI w/ a DPF. Had Castrol Professional 5w30 from the dealer its whole life at 10k intervals. Now at 170k. I would like to go w/ Red Line but not sure which one would fit the bill. What about AMSOIL's choices? I'd like to stay w/ a 5w30 if possible. It uses no oil in its 10k...

Ahh. Roger that.

No problem.

N/m I figured it out. From there... All of them use a mixture of differing groups, as each group provide certain elements they do well. But usually have a predominant use of one group or another. I can say what is THOUGHT to be the case on a few. Mind you, only they truly know for sure but...

Did you see the other thread I mentioned sammy? I can't copy/paste on this tablet or I'd just link it or paste the info here. Anyone know how to copy/paste on an Android tablet by Asus? Heh. Also I think this thread is dangerously close to being uncivil as I'm starting to see personal attacks...
