Additionally does anyone use Mobil 1 5W 50 in their cars and is this safe for a once a month strart up in sub-zero temps during the canadian winters???? The local dealer here is recommending 0W 40 right across the board for all their oil changes but im finding it a bit of a scavenger hunt to locate the stuff outside the dealer.
Thanks.

Hi,
You don't want 5W-50. Stay with the Porsche recommendation of 0W-40. Also, you don't want to start the car once a month either. Set it and forget it 'til spring...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
