I still think Magnatec had more pizazz, the GTX Full Synthetic comes off cheaper and more generic sounding than Magnatec even though it's the same oil.

Well the bottle and filter box sure do look more fun than the super tech and Mobil 1 box!

So, while cleaning out my basement, I found 3 quarts of unused Mobil 1 0W40 that I used to use in my Audi A4 back in the day.
That being said, I purchased another quart of the 0W40 and :

How is that cylinder deactivation working for you?
Did you have any top off during any of these change or did you get an oil rise due to oil dilution?

I honestly don’t even notice cylinder deactivation. No rise in oil at all, dipstick was approximately 3/4 of the way up between L and F. Drained out 4.6 qts and had topped off to 5 qts at last change (some spillage and oil in filter, I imagine).
