Surprising, to see that he's still that actively involved in the business, even signing off TSB's.

Alan is Al's son.

Interesting is the SAAB and VW recommendation. (XL)

The recommendation for SAAB and VW/Audi should be the ACEA, A3/B4 rated, 5w-40 and not the A1/B1 rated, XL Series oils.

I have a number of local customers who run Amsoil in the 3.0L toyota engine with 7k-10k intervals and excellent long term results. I also think the 5k interval for VW/Audi is VERY conservative.
