My 2005 Linear (2.0t) specifies GM-LL-A-025 oil in 0W-30, 0W-40, or 5W-30. GM-LL-A-025 oils in 5W30 are extremely hard to find in the U.S. but not in western Europe.
It seems to boil down to:
Mobil 1 0W-40
Castrol Edge 0W-30 European Formula
Total Quartz Energy 9000 0W-30 (available regionally, in a few scattered places in other parts of the U.S.)
Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5W-30 (available only in a 55 gallon drum)
Valvoline Synpower 5W-30 MST (MST, not non-MST, which seems to be available rarely on ebay when someone brings over a few bottles from Europe)
