I talked to the previous owner & he was using Valvoline with a Mann filter. I talked to one of the mechanics at the shop where all of the previous service work was done & he said that they've been using Penzoil for thirty years. After reading the previous posts about the Mobil synth oil I'm tempted to use it but with 417K on the engine I hate to jinx it. I'll do some research on it. I can't get over what a finely made car this is. It's such a pleasure to drive that I take it out just to drive around & I haven't done that since high school. I've never driven a Porsche but the Saabs must rank right up there with them & I don't think that you can put 417K on a Porsche without any major engine work done to them. Mark
