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

I will say I've done my last 3 oil changes with penzoil platinum and my engine rode rougher and louder than it did before with the Toyota oem oil. So this past time I tried mobil 1 and it's way quieter and rives smoother.

Pros: quieter and rives smoother
Cons: rode rougher and louder

I'm running Amsoil 5w40 or Castrol Syntec 5w40. I ran Mobil1 10W30 a few times and I heard too much valve noise. When I opened the oil cap after driving around on the freeway it was smoking..which I'm not all that happy about. So I stopped using this oil.

Cons: too much valve noise, smoking
