Generally, brand matters a lot. Amsoil, Mobil 1, and Castrol are all great.

I run Castrol in my older cars and Mobil 1 in newer cars that I care more about.

Pros: great oil
Vehicle: BMW

I use 5W40, Castrol Edge, has the 502/505 certification, if it doesn't don's use it. You can use the 0W40 European Formula as found at Walmart; is also 502 certified.. This is a good all-year 'round oil.

Pros: good all-year oil

Castrol Engine oil

I put mine in around 20k. The first change I did - it had 2 small metal shavings. I got very nervous. Ever since then there has been the powder you have in the pic above. Sometimes more sometimes less. The 2 times I have used Castrol I found more than other times (This could mean it protects less or that it carries the particles better than other oils). I will only become worried when I start seeing shavings. To me it's only an additional monitoring system. Like in a tranny - powder is ok, but shavings mean save up some cash. oh and my car is now at 125k.

Pros: additional monitoring system
Cons: metal shavings initially
Mileage: 125000 km
