Porsche wanted you to use 0W-40 originally but now they recommend 5W-50 which is what Porsche sell for the 996 as their Classic oil for the 996. I’ve used Mobil 1 5W-50 for 3 years now, good pressure and next to nothing on the magnetic drain plug since so seems to be working. In my last change I’ve also added Ceratec on recommendation of another member of this sub and since have noticed the engine is a little quieter and get slightly better mpg so would recommend giving that a go if you are so inclined.

Pros: good pressure, quieter engine
Vehicle: Porsche

I use Mobil1 0w40 for the last 3 years (changed twice a year) with flawless UOA reports. I upgraded this summer to M1 5w50 as I do get low pressure warnings at times during high heat and heavy traffic situations summertime. Winter going back to 0w40

Pros: flawless UOA reports
Cons: low pressure warnings
Vehicle: Porsche

Mobil Engine oil

Mobil-1 5w30 ESP (what most ppl use since it’s cheap but I’ve heard it isn’t the best, was recommended these others by a guy who’s been dealing with/tuning German diesels forever)

Pros: cheap
Cons: not the best

I stay away from Mobil 1 and Castrol because although they are everywhere they are not as good as they euro synthetics. In Europe they are not even legally considered synthetics. When I drain mobil1 it looks black and the engine is missing a quart...

Cons: looks black, engine missing a quart
