Looks like Magnesium is up, Calcium is down (slightly, possibly within lab variation) and Moly is down.

I also notice PAO content has changed also in other grades.

Perhaps some slight tweaking? That other sample is from 3 years ago though, so that change may have happened anytime between then and now. Viscosity looks the same however, as does most of the rest of it.

Which ones?

The AFE 0W20 has high PAO vs before.

 

[The Critic]

The AFE 0W20 has high PAO vs before.

Data sheet still shows 30-40% PAO, which is the same as always.

There was a thread regarding PAO content was changed. I dont recall the thread to share.

EP is high pao not AFE

I swear there was a datasheet in between those two dates that showed 60-70% GTL.

You might be thinking of the "Full Synthetic" 0w-20:

Sorry for the mis-information. I saw a thread regarding formula had changed. Now I can't find it to show.

You keeping old time sheets I see...

Nothing wrong with that. Interesting to see differences over time.

It's kind of interesting how long Mobil has stayed with the same additive system. Of course there are things you can't see but in terms of additive levels not much has changed over the years.

They were a "decade ahead", seems that's been working out for them.
