AMSOIL for sure. It is expensive but well worth it.

I didn't look in the manual yet but I noticed the Mobil 1 logo on the oil fill cap. Is this what GM is recommending for the car? I've never used Mobil 1 in any of my cars.

I've never used it either but since its the recomended oild for this car I think I will stay with it for that reason alone.

Just changed the oil at 2400 after a nice 1609 mile trip to New England and back. |

GM4718M is General Motors' High Performance engine oil specification. Oils which meet GM4718M tend to be made from synthetic base stocks, so it is often referred to as a "synthetic" specification.
However, not all oils, synthetic or otherwise, are capable of meeting the stringent requirements of GM4718M.
