    I'm running Castrol GTX, 20w50, and no problems here at 212,000 miles.

    >Also, I have a buring oil smell coming from the bottom of my car,
    particularly under the front end of the car, on the drivers side. Does
    anyone know what this problem could be?

    Leaking P/S pinion (or, possibly, pump). The fluid goes straight back
    onto the exhaust (ort at least did on mine), and is especially
    noticeable on hills.
