here is a composition of oil analysis done on several vq engines with various drivers and driving styles on the org.

if you read around, you'll find that most recommend castrol gtx for dino oil, and amsoil or mobil 1 for synthetic (both of the weight of 5w30)

or you can look in the owners manual for the recommended oil weight depending on the temperature extremities
