Hey, you're right. Thanks, no reason to head to Walmart anymore. Oil was the only thing I bought there. I despise Walmart, but at $15-20 cheaper a jug they got to my sellout point.
I think this is what I'll go with. Also looks like Amazon price matched https://www.amazon.com/Mobil-120760-Synthetic-Motor-0W-40/dp/B00HG76A9A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1484927714&sr=8-1&keywords=Mobil+1+Full+Synthetic+0w40
So $50 in oil and a $10 filter. Yep confirms what I said to someone looking at a boxster, Porsche mechanics are highway robbers.
I have been using this for years on my Minis and never had a problem with it. It was originally recommended to me on the northamericanmotoring.com forums. I highly recommended it too.
Thanks for the answer! This is the first time we've been met with a car that recommends a variety of oils. We've only owned Chevy, Jeep, and Toyota in the past and they all have a pre-set oil viscosity they want irregardless of your climate.
I'm in New England USA which means its fairly moderate. Warm summers, chilly winters but rarely anything into the extremes.
Our cars mostly run 5W-30 which is why I was hoping we could get away with using that if it is a direct place in.
I'm thinking of using the Mobil 1 European Formula

Because that website recommended it. But I see it nowhere listed on the MB 229.5 page. Only general Mobil1 shows up there
Thanks!
Edit:
Got the Castrol 0W-40 :) all good
I think the GM-LL-A-025 spec is technically obsolete and replaced by the Dexos requirements. Anyways, I source my 0w40 Mobil 1 Euro car formula on Amazon Prime.

$22.88 for a 5 quart jug. My 200,000 mile 2.0t seems to like the oil just fine, although I've never ran an oil analysis.
