I have been using the M1 5w-40 for a little over a thousand miles now. I checked it today and the oil is still honey colored. The car runs smoother than before and just keeps getting better. I have noticed no sluggishness from it at all. I took out the Castrol the dealer put in by mistake because I had my own oil to use but they did not look in the trunk to get it. They use semi-synth 10w-30 at the dealership when it says in my manual that 40 wt's are to be used and synthetic at that. I have M1 10w-30 in my truck and have no complaints about Mobils products for German cars.

You mean the Delvac 1 or the M 1 0W-40???
Sounds like M1 5W-40 Truck & SUV formula. It's the same stuff as Delvac 1.
Thunderchild: Let us know if you experience any extra oil consumption with it. I've used up about 3/4 quart with it, when my car usually uses less than 1/4 quart. I'm not sure if I've got a leak or not, and won't get a chance to see until my next oil change. More input on your experience after a few thousand more miles would be appreciated!
ive been using M1 5w-40 for like almost 5K miles and will most likely be going to 8K or so due to being broke. i will have it analysed. and ive had no consumption from my 00 Golf 1.8T thats driven VERY hard.
I will check the consumption. It was never a problem for me with this car so I will keep an eye on it. The M1 5w-40 is the Truck and SUV oil. It is Delvac 1 re bottled and renamed. The car runs like a sewing machine with this oil. I am impressed by it's effects on the TT.
