I have got a V7 STI BUGEYE, and i am using Mobil 1 15/50, my misses uses the car for stop start driving, but when i use it it gets some stick, and on motorway driving it is always in 3 figures. Also we go abroad driving in higher temps than here a couple of times a year. Is this oil ok, i also change it around every 3000 miles.

The cold start viscosity of the 15w is a bit heavy, you would do better with a 5w or 10w.

Mobil 1 is great quality stuff though.

Cheers
