So, fearing I might start a huge debate.. which oil? SSP recommends Castrol Edge 0W40 Castrol EDGE 0W-40 A3/B4 | Features and Recommended Engines | Castrol EDGE (it's a 2000 - 2,7L)
I believe Castrol has the Titanium version Castrol EDGE 0W-40 A3/B4 | Castrol For You
which is available for you. I can't get it state side (California).

As such, I use the non-synthetic Kendal 20w50, with Titanium and extra zddp. That will cause a huge debate also.

Very glad your baby is running sweet. Run her (him?) long and hard!!
