A lot of opinions you have to sift through to get the facts. That being said - my car is a lot quieter on start-up since moving away from the Mobil1 product.

What climate do you live in? Mobil 5W50 would be a great choice (except winter, use 0W40 for winter season). It's A40 Porsche approved, and easy to buy on sale about 4 times a year at Napa for $6/quart. Couple times a year, you can double dip with the Mobil $2/quart rebate.
