My local dealer put Castrol Syntec blend in my '96 set. Seems to work pretty well. I'm about to do my first oil change and figured I would stick witht the same. I've got 160k+ miles on the car I just bought and debated whether hi-mi oil was the way to go.
In motorcycle applications, I have noticed that SYNTHETIC sometimes has a tendency to weep more at gaskets than standard or blend. Even if it is the same viscosity. I've also noticed more missed shifts with synth, but that is a trait that wouldn't carry over to car applications.
