Amway sells crap you can buy "like" product anywhere. That's not the case with Amsoil. I haven't bought oil off the shelf in a very long time for any of my cars.

Ignore any extra crap they send you. This is about oil, not there other junk.

Yea I think it may have been the initial break in period of the car, Im not sure. I know 1/2 quart is not alot but I would prefer it to be even less next 6,000 miles. Ill update when it hits that, prolly around Fall time. Also just ordered another case of Amsoil 0W-30 with EA017 oil filter, but think I prolly should have just went with 10W-30 since Im moving back to Texas in December...

Either is far superior to other options. 0W-30 has impressed me as well with its shear resistance.

1/2 qt over 6500 miles early on ain't bad.

I referenced this thread when I made my decision:

Wither it be RP or Amsoil, both choices have good explanation for which to use. I personally chose Amsoil because being in Richmond i can order from the warehouse and pick up same day using the preferred customer, and have used it in previous cars as well.

This was helpful. I've got a 13 track pack that is used as a street car. I'll be switching to Amsoil 5-w30 for my first oil change with amsoil filter.
