Niiice. Thanks for the heads up. A month ago had to buy it at full price, $50/jug.

No problem.

Just a word of caution, I went today to pick up a jug of 5W20 for my DD, grab the first one on the shelf and right away felt it was smaller/lighter than I expected, looked at the label and sure enough it was a 4.4L jug!! The 5L jugs are lined up behind the 4.4L jug, so make sure you check the label.

The rest of the grades were all 5L sizes.

Thanks for the heads up - picked up two 5L jugs of 5/40.

5/40 is okay to run even though porsche recommends 0/40?

Actually 5/40 is on the list for approved oils, (as long as it meets Porsche's criteria which Castrol does). I haven't talked to ONE mechanic who likes the stuff (0/40) including Jake Raby. From the statements I've heard from people who know more then I - Porsche use it as a factory fill (and 'suggest' you use it) is that it increases the fuel economy slightly at the expense of longer term wear properties. I have heard that race teams love it as there is a friction advantage for this oil weight - but as we drive in the real world and not short term race engines, I'd rather listen to people who service clients engines then a marketing group.
