Mobil 1 Advanced Clean 5W-30 VOA

Less is more
Kind of what I expected although I didn't expect no boron. Boron has been used for decades and is in most formulations. New chemistry that is just not going to show up on a VOA. TBN doesn't seem to be as important anymore as discussed a lot on here.
interesting
has a magic cleaning elixir like Valvoline Restore and Protect that doesn't show up on UOA.

Is this stuff API SQ?
I can't find it on their website. Strange. Have they not updated their website yet?

TBN seems awfully low for a 20,000 mile/1 year oil. I'm sure it's got its own secret sauce though.
edit: added to the database

Yep! API SQ. Thanks. Will add that info to the database.

Great quote from Bastiat.
Should be a better/improved update. They haven't updated their website to reflect this new oil so we don't know where it will stand or whether it will replace EP. I'm hoping it replaces EP and doesn't become the 234th version of Mobil 1 they offer.
Thank you for posting this.
This oil is not available in Canada that I have seen thus far.

20k mile oil with a starting TBN of 5.5?
It must be the extended release formula.

ULSF doesn't require the high TBN of the past.
