Does anyone have the current Porsche approved oils which might be available in the US. I've used M1 0w-40 for my first change but noticed that my local Advance Auto had Castrol Syntec 5w-40 for $5/qt on sale.

Is this oil approved?

Thanks.

Why not? Seems like a reasonable question.

Thanks for the link. I am a member of Renntech but can't see the TSB's. Says need to be a "contributing member". Not sure if that means a certain number of posts or as in $'s.

Sounds like the Castrol Syntec is on the list.

Thanks again.

You need to donate a small amount to become a contributing member, but it is well worth it IMHO.
