I have always had good luck with Castrol in all of its forms. The b13 gets 5w40 Syntec and is changed between 1500-2000 miles because that's about as much as it gets driven in a year lol.

Addictive packages you say? Are we still talking about oil? uhm so yeah I've read a lot of good reports on the rotella tooo.

A lot of Subaru guys have gotten burned by Mobil 1. Also if you read up on the German Castrol the 0w-30 acts like a 40w when it gets really hot so it can handle some heat. Never run VVL out in the desert (AZ CA etc ) though so....
