Default Which oil weight to use in No. Cali (sorry, search is down)

Hi all, I know this question has been asked alot, but the forum search is down so I can't find the answer... just recently moved to Bay Area and wanted to know which oil type I should use? Thanks for any help!

Default I use Mobil 1 5w-30 all year round. (SF Bay Area)

I've had no trouble with oil temps. I spent a day at the track in 90 degree heat and oil temps never went over 250, even with the turbo singing away. I would have been down right worried if I didn't have synthetic in there though. ;-)<p><a href="http://www.dnai.com/~adamant/a4_avant.htm"><img src="http://www.dnai.com/~adamant/adamsavant1.jpg"></a>
