I would recommend Mobil1 or Castrol. I prefer Mobil1 and i'm always left with about 1qt from a 5qt jug; :thumbs up

ok, so i think im gonna go castrol, thats what mini reccommends for my moms car, and i hear theyre really good, also Aqualite, by 3:1 you mean, for every 3 qts oil you add 1 of stabilizer? how has it worked for you so far, ive heard people say its not good for high revving engines, but id imagine 3-4 qts of oil thins it out a bit

To me its mobil 1 fully synthetic. I know its more expensive but i use the Mobil 1 filter also.

I usually run pep boys 5qt special w/ filter but for oil additives I've used engine restorer 4cyl fluid . I've got some experience with it and I'd give it an A .
