0w40 and 5w40 Mobil 1, both perform nearly identically from what I can tell. I think the car started a little quicker in the dead of winter when I switched to 0w40.
Pros: car started quicker

Pros: happy with M1
Cons: castrol burns more

i have used Amsoil for going on 10 years with great success. I have never had a problem or failure with anything i have used it in.
Pros: great success, no problems
I used to use mobil1 5w30 for 2 or 3 oil changes then switch to Total 5w40 full syn and it burns way less. I think I burn a whole quart every 3 or 4k using 5w30 but with Total 5w40 I burnt probably hald that.
Pros: burns way less
Cons: burn a quart
I don't know what all you others guys are doing but I run 5w40 full synthetic Motul. Best stuff... the people who said they seem to burn oil should try 5w40 synthetic, many people have shown improvements with it. I run it to 10,000 kms or 6K miles and the stuff still looks good.
Pros: best stuff, looks good
Cons: burn oil
Mileage: 9656 km
I used to use Esther based Motul products and have nothing but good things to say. I've since switched to Lubro Moly since it's easier to get locally and is cheaper.
Pros: good things to say
Cons: easier to get locally, cheaper
for the last year ive ran the pure one \"micron\" and a a soup of mobil one 5w30 with the lucas fully syn additive. nothing but happy driving. the tick has gone away with the mix, or so i think.
Pros: happy driving, tick gone
