Did I screw up with SynLube?

I think this thread proves that there is a defect or design flaw in this engine. They are all blowing up!! Why?? It's obviously not the oil!! You were told this by everyone about this engine,how can you blame synlube.

Miro was correct,he should not have sold you the oil. The engine was already dead and didn't know it yet!!

No oil will help a design flaw!!! It may prolong the agony!!

Also,you said you did mods,etc. Why? Were you driving this engine hard,or racing. When/why was the water injection system installed. Why? To stop severe engine knock??

The bottom line is the engine was doomed from the start!

When you mod a car,you void the warranty!! The warranty was voided "before" you added the synlube becauses of the mods. It's in the manual.

Synlube does not void the warranty,...it has to be proven the oil caused the problem,but the mods already took care of that.

My engines never blew up,or had any negative issues whatsoever. Only very positive.

If you are going to race or mod an engine with synlube,then in that case you should have been sending in synlube samples to synlube on a regular basis anyway,did you?

Too much Fuel/water in the oil(any oil) will kill any engine period,especially this mazda engine in a hearbeat!!

How is the car doing now,and did you somehow get any work done under warranty?

That's nice, but I'm still wondering what is the point of Synlube when $2 dino oil goes 10k miles with perfect results and zero risk.

Now thats enough your scam is dead,and you are a pure idiot,wow you a wannabe computer engineer.....great,there is no design flaw on these engine,your scam product is the flaw.

Ponitiac replaced the chewed up motor under warranty.

What pontiac didn't know,and I do, is the car was "heavily" modified by this person,...well over 350hp. He loves to race all the time!! He then put the car back to factory setups,240hp,.. and then went back to the dealership with the car. Happens all the time. Some people are very "resourceful".

Do you really think dealer and mechanics are idiot? They wont notice the mods done to the car.....its an s/c sure you can boost more but to do so you change the size of the pulley,change the fuel map,most likely have to put some new injector,and he race it hard yeah baby.
Seriously ,i wish law would protect people against you and your product,luckily your post on this forum,are proof by themselves or the nature of SYNLUBE .Continue posting you doing a great jobs and we will make sure that every car forum know about your scam.
 
This thread keeps getting better. Like a dealership mechanic wouldn't know an engine was tampered with then the mods removed? Especially bolt on mods that were bolted on then removed. In another thread they're trying to push their gear lube.

These threads are the most entertaining internet fun I've had in a long time. Having said that I think Miro and the Synlube Shills should be removed from Bitog. They should pony up the cash and sponsor their own Forums so they can pat each other on the back and talk up their products. JMO
 
I like the spider graph on their oil comparisons page. Its pretty obvious they grabbed that from ILSAC or similar and used paint to fill it in with green and add the SynLube text. The amount its filled in..I mean its just unlikely that their product happens to work so well that it maxed out every parameter. Did they actually run the API/ILSAC tests? Just the fact that it looks like something I did when I was 8 on my first computer throws up flags.
 
I have a problem when somebody makes a wild claim that ALL the engines in a certain model of car are blowing up! If such was really the case there would be a major recall of that car model and the car company that produced the car would have serious lawsuits against them and their image would be very tarnished to say the least.

I also cannot believe that any guy would have so many problems with a simple oil change. Sure, I have run across a few vehicles that maybe had a hard to reach oil filter or whatever. But changing the oil is usually easy. It sometimes takes me a while because I allow as much dirty oil as possible to drain.
 
Well demarpaint the Synlube fans do need to have their own little forum where they can brag up their product to each other. But I don't think it is going to do them a lot of good. All of this info about Synlube is going to be all over the internet. They have some major damage control issues.

They may have got away with a lot of stuff at other forums and websites but I think coming to bitgo was a VERY BIG MISTAKE on their part.

There has been a lot of hidden secrets exposed here.
 
Yes, but as they say, all good things must come to an end. I think it might be time to show them the door. It is clear none of our questions are being answered, they took some cheap shots at Helen on another board. The insults were hot and heavy. I learned that you and I are old and Frozen in Time. You do remember that? Us old guys sometimes have problems remembering. LOL

I think it's time to say goodbye to Synlube and crew. JMO
 
I don't know why they keep hanging around themselves. Do they think they are really going to convince anybody here to use Synlube? When the battle is lost you have no choice but to retreat.

Hey I am old. And yes I am Frozen in Time. I kind of like being Frozen in Time actually.

These Synlube guys have made some incredible statements. And nobody seems to be able to locate their wonderful Synlube production plant. And the State of Nevada seems to have a pretty low opinion of Synlube.

Might be time to pack up, move to another state, and a name change for their product.
 
I said it before I'll say it again. Best thing to do when you're in a hole is stop digging. They don't seem to get it!

You're right Mystick

Check the other site. They emailed a member a PDS. One could wonder:

Why not post it themselves?

Why spend all that energy spewing insults for daring to question synlube? Posting the sought data would of been easier.

Why now, after all the effort over the years and many boards?
 
Simple , he have a load of oil in stock,got probably the IRS on is [censored] .....and fell desperate to get rid of is product as fast as possible,scammer like that always have issue with the IRS.Maybe he have hard time to deal with is multiple personality to who know....lots of forum ban people for multiple account.
 
Have you ever noticed one common denominator in all scam devices????

Every advance in our engineering gets widely publicized in our trade magazines, car magazines and popular science/mechanics and other journals. Examples have been Fuel injection, combustion chamber design, knock sensors, roller cams, friction modifiers in oils.... the list is very long. HCCI combustion is the next hot topic, you will have heard about it for years before anybody is selling it.

With scams, you always hear it first from literature promoting the product. Fuel line magnets, miracle carburetor devices, various spark intensifiers, the list is very long.. consumers reports tested a dozen or so a few years ago. None improved the mileage, some made it worse.

Now, what secrets would synlube have??? Colloidal mixtures?? Slick 50 was a failure..... what else?? If they really had something API and ILSAC would already be proposing GF6!!!!

The promoters seem to tell us to keep an open mind..... ok is looking for evidence an example of a closed mind?? Now maybe those that just fell off the turnip truck will automatically believe all sales pitches... that seems to be the nature of most scams.

Anecdotes are no substitute for the lengthy and grueling api/ilsac testing that other oils are subjected to. And no one has presented a shred of evidence that SYNLUBE can pass these tests even once, let alone forever.

What keeps the followers on board??? I have run Mobil 1 for 20k OCI's for years, with motors easily lasting 300K miles. I suspect that you could also run 50 k oci's without damage THAT WAS APPARENT TO THE OWNER. And, almost nobody keeps cars as long as I do anyway!! I would not recommend it (heck, I do not recommend 20k, but its easy, once a year.....)
But, it would not be proof that it was a permanent oil in your crankcase. It would, however be way cheaper than putting in Synlube!!

For those of you that have thoroughly read the Synlube website, my favorite line is the part about 0W20 oils being a desperate attempt to get mileage, while helping the carmakers sales, as it will cause our motors to wear out in about 70K miles.

Stated as absolute fact!!!

Why in the heck do my motors (1994 3.1 litre Chevy tow vehicle and 1994 Escort commuter) still seem perfect after 300K on 0W20??

Enough of my rant..... and anyway I just saw Yeti running across my back yard..... And I got an offer from a guy in Nigeria to help him get millions transferred to my bank account!!

I live in the north of Canada.....under harsh condition,i have several buddy living in Alaska to,[censored] lots of them did use and still use 0w20 for obvious reason....but i guess we are all doom. How about that Miro.... sponsor my ride,lets put a evo coil over kit on it with 37 inch tire,put some dana 60 and a s/C on my engine at your cost , ill be willing to run your oil until the engine blow deal? Sorry by the way for my pre school English im trying to improve but im a French Canadian :p
 
Notice how these two give out their credentials. They are or have worked with engineers, BUT none of these people are tribologists or are even in the oil industry. Why would anybody care if you're not a lubricant expert?

I've only been on BITOG for a year, but nobody ever gives out their credentials unless it's oil or car related. These two are in some totally different industry. Not too smart if they think that's going to trump the experience of real experts. I won't need a UOA to convince myself that Synlube works.
 
Ever done an engineering degree ?

Why would I believe a word that you have to say about engineers, tribologists, and qualifications if you are talking from the sidelines ?
