Well, you and Salv made me think long and hard about the ACEA A1/A5 recommendation. So, i went to WM and bagan reading the bottles to see who offered all the recommendations (or above). BINGO! Valvoline MaxLife does: SN/GF-5/ACEA A5-A1. It only cost $16 and Valvoline advises it is absolutely acceptable for new cars. This is the best of all worlds IMHO. Thanks for getting me off my butt.
