My saturn dealer uses castrol oil

[Chazb]

I just checked with my saturn dealer and they use castrol synthetic and they say that saturn approved this oil for the redline.The redline comes with mobil one and and this dealer has all the saturn dealership's in my area.I dont want to change it myself so would this be just as good as mobil one?

I prefer Castrol oil products to all others. I'll be switching on the next change.

Thanks but I went out and bought mobil 1 and they will put that in for me.I only have 1000 miles but I always like to get my oil changed early for the first time .140 mph huh I would like to try but spending the night in jail dont quite thrill me.

I had my dealership change my oil and it says right on the invoice Mobil 1 8 qts. I've always used Mobil 1 in everything I own (not leased)
Spending the night in jail sucks.

What weight oil does the Ion take? My Vue takes 5W-20 but that's because its a Honda motor. Very tight clearances I guess. I too prefer Castrol.

Im running Castrol in mine now and honestly I can say after my first oil change with the switch. It seems alot smoother than when the Mobil was in it.

dude if they charged you for 8 qts you got ripped off. thats too much. try this change youre oil, put in 6 qts and wait a few minutes then check the dipstick.
the pan does not drain completely nor does the head you can not drain all the oil when you change it,
