ESP is labeled "Supercar 0w40", M1-EP is labeled "triple action". I'm waiting for them to label the AFE 0w16 that l use in my Toyota hybrid to "boring car 0w16".

New M1 EP labels ("Triple Action Formula")

Ya it was mentioned last Saturday.

Mobil 1 ESP X3 0W40

This oil is suitable for diesel engine with DPF? Yes, it carries multiple approvals that are suitable for that application. Generally mid-SAPS= diesel passenger car with dpf oil, although they're now being spec'd for gasoline cars, but when they first hit the market until gasoline became low...

Don't worry. Corvette owners will come in here and then claim M1 is trying to get ride of "old stock" which will sacrifice their engine for the emissions systems which they've deleted.

The vast majority of Corvettes are OEM Stock.

Interesting how here they emphasize their cooperation with Porsche :https://www.mobil.com/en-de/passenger-vehicle-lube/pds/gl-xx-mobil-1-esp-x3-0w40

I’m waiting for Mobil 1 Super Duper.

Hey, it says up to 70% of engine wear may occur during the first 3 seconds of startup. You heard it from the Mobil Super Car dudes. Where are are the Bitog engine wear experts?

Esp x3 is a different oil than this one

 

[felixthecat]

No it's the same

 

[felixthecat]

.....maybe not?
There are 2 different 0w-40 ESPs !

 

[Gene K]

No it's the same

ESP Formula 0W-40
ESP X3 0W-40

They were different. The X3 is the latest flagship oil.

Both however carry Dexos 2 approval so Corvette owners are fine either way.

This oil is appealing as it's right on the 30/40 grade line.

Definitely some fuel dilution there, would like to see the results from another lab that uses GC.
