They ran the new M1 Triple Action formula for 20k mile drains, then beyond 20k miles drains. Engine tear down. Not only did the engines stay remarkably clean, but they're also all API SP approved. All parts scored above a 9. Intake valves looked great but that's mostly due to Toyotas dual port system.

I can only share the FB link at the moment. He didn't upload it yet to his YT channel. Let me check again.
 
Yeah I like the Sequence VH test. This is a really good video. You can clearly see the level of testing that goes into these oils. To Mobil's credit they put more videos and behind the scenes testing out there than any other brand I can think of.
 
Who is "he" and "they"? If you tell us who posted this maybe we can look for it ourselves. I also don't have a valid link.
 
They = ExxonMobil
He - Engineering Explained

It hasn't been uploaded to his YT channel yet.
 
So this video is available on the "engineering explained" facebook page?

edit: I found it.

I was able to watch it on my iPhone using the Brave browser. Did not work in safari. Great video. Although a few complaints. He shows a lawnmower engine and piston repeatedly. And a V8 at times.

although it’s easy enough for a technical people to weed through the nonsense, the average person won’t understand that some of the items shown were not the ones tested.

show me the actual parts, such as each rod bearing, in 4K resolution and let me decide.

Got a laugh when I saw all the wet paint signs in the testing lab. Gotta look good for YouTube.

Reminded me of this photo. Some were commenting the blue paint looks fresh. They even got a little on the spout where the lubricant pours out.

Learned a few things from the video. That Toyota direct injection method to prevent carbon buildup is very cool. Not looking forward to paying a mechanic to walnut blast the BMW N54 engine.
