One thing good about a UOA, can verify water in the oil,

The problem with oil change places, they use the cheapest OF they can get. I would never run one of those ever. They maybe good for 5k

See it says 0/30. Engine would be just fine with a 0/40. This BS is there for 1 purpose. CAFE

What is the point of going long on the OCI? Oil is still cheap as far as maintenance is concerned. I get it if it’s a lease vehicle. Follow mfg. if you own it, and plan on keeping it for 300k, it’s just not worth it especially with DI, turbo charged, and thin viscosity. You can say it’s a waste...

Yes. But the main part of their marketing still says Mobil 1. The other names are off to the side. Like Honda. Have the H in the center. Trim and model on the sides. There other brands back to Castrol. In the 90s it was Castrol Syntec. Duh. Synthetic. What kind of name is Edge? How does that...

Well if there wasn’t truth what I said? Amsoil, Redline; HPL, wouldn’t be in bus.

They were in the mid 90s. Then after the lawsuit M1 followed Castrol along with the rest. In the 90s M1 was over 4 bucks a Qt. Regular Dino oil was 1.25. Gas in CA at that time was around 1.10. I remember. I got my drivers license in 92. The dollar was high in value in comparison to today. Today...

Probably would if your on the track at high RPMS for long periods of time. A daily driver. IDK. Unless you’re doing full engine tear downs every 25k miles.

All brands have marketing to consumers and business. Castrol originally competed against M1 with their name Syntec. The rest including Castrol keep changing their names to market synthetic oil. Now M1. They’ve always stayed the same with their M1 marketing Always been Mobil 1 with the 1 in black...

Very valid points. To unleash 10k HP in seconds and not blow up a rear diff. Imagine that instant twist of torque.

Still a tapper from the tip of the rocker to the tip of the valve stem. Run M1 0/40 and they get quite. My K24 Honda 280k never had a valve adjustment

Run M1 0/40 in my J35 and my K20C4

I run M1 0/40 in my 2020 Acura RDX with 2L turbo. No LSPI and also run the required premium fuel. IMHO premium should be required in a turbo charged engine. Probably would solve that issue

I certainly wouldn’t run a 0/20. Stick with M1 0/40.

HM oil is marketing BS. Keep doing what you’re doing.
