Believe it or not, but Mobil 1 is not for everyone and every engine. I used to be a Mobil 1 diehard but the longer I used it, the more I became dissatisfied with it. I had too much engine noise at startup and even during normal running then I was comfortable with. Even before my coolant leakage problems, I was not getting great analysis on my truck. Even though I had decent results on our Grand Prix, Blackstone still recommends changing the oil at 5,000 miles which to me is not very cost effective. The GP is also starting to use this oil at a pretty high rate.
I know right now that I'm alot more satisfied using Chevron Supreme in my truck then I was with the Mobil 1. Engine noise is almost completely gone and oil consumption has gone down. I will be switching the GP over to it also once my stock of Mobil 1 for it is gone.
