I don't know or care what the "best" oil is. I just want something that is better than Mobil 1.
I get less startup valve train noise with Motul 8100 Excess vs M1 0W-40 in an MB E320 so that's why I went with Motul. How's RedLine on this issue? With their high percentage of ester basestock, the noise (I assume) would be less. I was looking at RLI's HOBS oils but they don't make the HTHS reqt of Porsche (>= 3.5 cP).
