Stumbled upon a good rant about engine oil http://www.micksgarage.com/blog/a-rant-about-engine-oil/
"Lets dispel a few myths:
Your car doesn’t just need semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oil – it needs the right spec oil (which may turn out to be a semi-synthetic or fully synthetic oil)
Your car doesn’t just need a 5w30 grade oil – it needs the right spec oil (we list about 7 or 8 different 5w30’s on our site alone – the grade you need may vary depending on the climate in which you live)
Your car doesn’t need a certain brand of oil – it doesn’t know what brand of oil it’s using – it needs the right spec oil."
