great to know ur seeing the same results- keep us posted!
Just changed the Bora's oil today with Castrol Edge Sport 5W-30 and the miracle juice did wonders for me as well
I had some pretty ugly timing chain noise that has now been virtually wiped out..
Havent had a chance to notice cold starts as the Global Warming was doing its best to keep my engine at 90degrees in the shade today - I will update in coming days.
Cant recommend this stuff enough!

Just read this thread and Castrol Edge Sport gets a bit of a bashing...

I still haven't done my oil change as I am waiting on filters (thanks kindly to Manaz) in the ECS GB so i can't compare.

You must have a different understanding of bashing than me.
Everything said there is true. It complies with the minimum requirements (VW 502 for petrol engines). There are better oils available.
Deisel Vert wouldn't use it (personal choice). I would (have already done so) - personal choice.

true - no doubt there are better oils out there, and no doubt that the "better" oils would have a better price too.
For what that car is (a daily doing 800-1,000 kms per week mostly 60/40 hwy/city) I am relatively confident the Castrol Edge Sport 5w-30 will be fine, especially if I change every 9,000 to 10,000 kms or so.
