Site Donor 2023
My Brother recently sold his 2007 Nissan 350Z (382K miles) and bought a newer one, 2018 with 25K miles. He has about 4 jugs of Mobil1 HM 5W-30 in the garage he wanted to use. So i showed him the video where Mobil1 uses a Camry to show this oil did a great job protecting the Toyota for 500K miles (used in the Toyota since new). So he called Mobil1 just to be safe....twice. And got the same answer...."not recommended due to seal swell agents in the oil". So i called and asked about the video??? I got a few "ahhhh, um, let me check....". Both times they came saying the video is not representative of a new vehicle and they don't recommend it. WHAT!?
My brother promptly took the oil back to Walmart and they graciously exchanged it for PP. He didn't even want to deal with Mobil1 anymore after that. He also called Mobil1 back to tell them not to honor the rebates he sent in since he returned the oil.
