Jake Raby, Charles Navarro and JFP see these cars everyday and their troubles; best to listen to their recommendation. FWIW, I change my oil annually (2500-3000 miles) and have been using Castrol Syntec 10W40. No clatter on start-up and filter/sump have been clean. __________________ JGM 2002 Boxster S 1973 911 Green FrankenMeanie PCA DE Instructor circa '95
