[QUOTE="Wildman113, post: 12428764, member: 125426"] Synthetic oil is just better oil. No downsides. The only time it can possibly cause leaks is on older, poorly maintained engines with worn seals and gaskets. This is due to the fact that it cleans out the crankcase and the actual molecules are smaller, so it can permiate places that conventional oil may not be able to. Castol Edge is excellent oil. With the mileage on your car, I would go with 5W-30 or 5-W40. The 5W-40 provides better protection once the engine is at operating temp due to its higher viscosity, and also contains more additives since its formulated for European cars. [/QUOTE]
