Another question on oil for the gurus:
As the engine accrues high mileage, do we continue using the same weight (0w-40) or should be start going to a different weight? My car has 64k miles - at what point should I consider switching?

I've only used Mobil1 0W-40 in the past. The Audi Oil Quality standards VW 502 00.. doc does indicate that Castrol 5W-30 or 40 does meet Audi standards. Does anyone regularly use Castrol - thoughts? Or is Mobil1 the best choice available in the US? I was planning to use the fully synthetic Castrol Syntec oil

took a look at shell.com but US doesn't seem to be listed there ?
good oil anyway..
edit: just saw that Pennzoil is listed under shell..perhaps the pennzoil ultra is same as helix ultra =)
