I use the full synthetic. Many folks on this site actually prefer the syn blend.
Yes, the non-turbo.

yeah I actually couldn't find the full syn here in Canada, only the blend at Napa.

Yeah I checked some reviews on Amazon and I was impressed with the positive reviews.

I had some in my escalade and it worked fine. I have some in my GMC right now but only got 300 miles on the oil. I’m not worried about it at all. I think it will be just fine in your car per the OLM
Great stuff! I am running the full syn now but ran the syn blend many times, no perceptible difference it's all good. I would be willing to push the full syn a little farther is about all, but ran the blend 8k without the slightest concern.
The Magnatec 5w30 syn blend is old stock. They changed it to full syn when d1g2 came along.
But since you have the 1.8 non-turbo, it should be fine

That Magnatec 5W30 synblend is well respected, member KJSmith has posted some excellent UOAs from his twin-turbo Ecoboost on that synblend.

It's a great oil, old or new formula.

Though its base oil is not good enough，I think it will be fine for your car according to some uoas here.
