SuperTech 5W20 Motor Oil, 5 Quart - Walmart.com.

I use this. Can't beat the price. YMMV

JayG thank you for the info (according to the manual thought I did the rite thing) but I will go to Castrol or Valvoline, just not a big Mobil fan as explained before. What is the miles on your Boxster. Hey JayG talking about oil is like talking politics or religion. LOL

You got that right brother!

FWIW, you sould look at Joe Gibbs DT-40, even though it is not on the Porsche list, it was specifically formulated for the M96 engine

I have 72k miles on the clock

Maybe you can't beat the price but any 0W20 oil sure can beat the rod bearings etc.

YMWV!

Agree nothing like a bearing knock in the afternoon. Like to see the oil pressure at 180degF water temp.
