I don't have the link, but I was looking through the PCA tech Q&A and there was a post there. It said that Porsche now recomeneds only Mobile 1 0w-40 for all season for all their cars with boxsers back to 73(?). Def. for the boxsters though. I went to a porsche shop near me and they said the same thing (about the boxsters, I'm not sure about the year, but it makes sense becuase thats when they switched from mechanical fuel injection to Bosch CIS).

Hopefully this helps. Ill look for the link
