    i use that nulon full syn oil never had a problem, no lifter noise and it seem to stay reasonably clean. i flush mine every service and my intervals are between 5000 and 7500 depending my driving habits. i even use nulon in my parents Captiva with no problems.

    You are correct, this has been answered a few times before. If you are unsure about how to search on this forum, throw me a Private Message. I would be happy to help....anyway;

    I use Mobil Super 2000 Semi Syn 10w40
    I change the oil every 5,000kms or 6 months
    I have a 2004 VZ Calais V6 with 112,000kms on the odometer
    I do a mixture of short trips and long highway cruising
    My car runs smooth and is very quiet on startup and idling
