Castrol Edge with Syntec 10w30 for summer, good choice or could've get a better one??
I just put Castrol Edge with Syntec 10w30 in my car for this summer, I was trying to decide also between Mobil 1 (cheaper) and Royal Purple (more expensive) but I went with Castrol (price in between), Please post your opinions!!!

It should be perfectly fine. good choice. I know people who ran the a/c delco regular blend 5w30oil in their lsx engines, and they currently have more than 180,000 miles on their cars.

Hi All,
I thought I heard something that Mobile 1's quality has been dropping is there any truth to that? and if so are there any articals published to back this up?
I've been using Mobile 1 in my 02 WS6 T/A since day one and just want to be sure I'm using the best, any thoughts?
THANKS!

Also, there's nothing wrong with conventional oil. Synthetics generally will benefit you with longer oil change intervals and better cold startup properties. Don't over think it too much, I've ran a handful of vehicles well past 200k on conventional without any oil related problems, it's all about proper maintenance. ...My wife's minvan has 248k on it as I speak.
Right now? I'm gonna go get my flame suit, I'm sure the synth guys we'll be gunnin' for me any minute....

Bob the Oil Guy seems the best source but in the end Mobile One is over rated IMO and for most cars conventional works just fine.
