20w 50

Hi everyone,
1999 9-3 140k miles 5spd
I lived in the tropics for a long time & always ran Mobil 1 15w 50 in my car since I bought it at 36k miles.
3 yrs ago I moved to the mid atlantic & switched to 5w 40 in the winter.
My car seems to be consuming a tiny bit of oil - not too bad, maybe a quart over 2500-3000 miles. I'm thinking I might jump up to 20w 50 oil but I have some questions.
is anyone running 20w 50 oil in their car? Can I use castrol dino oil or should I get the amsoil synthetic? As I said I've been using mobil 1 for over 100k miles.
Thanks!
