It says Durablend for some reason, but I clearly stated that it was Mobil. It must be a mistake on their end.
The engine runs more now, as the battery has more degradation; I also stopped forcing it to go to EV mode and just let it do whatever operational mode it wants. (getting about 15 miles range vs. the original 22). Known problem with those, they have software-induced fake degradation, which seems to make cars think that batteries have lost capacity more than reality. Reset and special procedures via MUT3 software help for a couple of days to recover the range on GOM, but after a couple of days, it slowly goes down to 12-16. Maybe in my case, degradation is real; TX heat and only HVAC battery cooling may not be cutting it. A much older Volt with 100k miles but water-cooled batteries had almost no degradation (32-36 old vs 36-38 new).
Here is UOA; this oil is from my stash and is at least five years old; the labels are yellowed now. I tried to shake it very good before pouring it in. Chevron 5w-20 SN dino oil went in; plan to keep it for 5k.
