Pretty sure Amalie Oil makes this.
Also my local Porsche dealer Porsche of Tampa (Reeves) uses Amalie oil in all oil changes on Porsche’s I brought up with Jason the service manager that this Amalie oil is not A40 Porsche approved he told me that this A40 spec Porsche approval is nothing more than marketing BS. I even called Porsche North America to discuss this and got nowhere.
I wouldn’t let them do the oil change on my 1st interval service on my 991 GT3. I did let them do the free oil change on my 2019 Macan which takes 0w20 and they put in 5w40...they had to redo the oil change.
Needless to say I will not use Tampa Porsche for service ever again. They have a good sales department but horrid service department

I’m Tampa (Rocky Point) as well. Bought Mrs. Cayenne at Reeves. I’m flabbergasted they can not use A40 spec oil. That is really surprising.
