Oil for a Boxster S

[BoxsTim]

Slightly off topic, but Castrol Edge 0W40, 5 qt is now available at Walmart for the same price ($25.17) as Mobil 1 0W40, 5 qt.

Excellent news. I didn't see the Castrol last time I was buying oil at Walmart-- a month ago.

Have you looked at the Joe Gibbs DT40 5w-40 this is more in line with the German engine design spec.

And the oil was developed with an M96/97 engine as the developmental mule.

I got my DT40 off Amazon, so I was able to buy only 10 quarts instead of a case of 12. I don't use any oil between changes and so this saves me from having 2.5 extra quarts laying around, and then next time having 4 extra, etc...
