Okay, since I just dumped the oil , I cannot do a UOA, but trust me, it is NOT the same. Here's what I did that led me to believe it sucks:
I took my 05 1.8T GLI and changed the oil and filter with the green GC and went for a drive on a Saturday with nice weather. Drive around city stop and go for about 30 minutes then I hit the highway. I did this for about one week. Every time the car would come to a stop at a light or a stop sign, the engine got real quiet and the rpms settled nicely. The temps were also normal too. City mpg = 28
Then, I dumped it and changed the oil and filter to the new GC and went for the same ride and same driving conditions. Guess what....everytime the car came to a stop, the engine was running louder than with the green GC. You could hear the engine, but with the green GC, it was near silent. The car ran louder and hotter.
City mpg = 24
So, in conclusion, the new GC sucks royally and I am so ****** off that the green is gone. My wife's 04 4cyln Camry has it and it works well in her car as well. She has commented that her car got real quiet! I cannot do an oil UOA, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to be an attentative driver / owner to your car. Its like being a good husband, you don't need a psych degree to do a good job, just be a good listener. Trust me, anyone that uses it, it will disappoint you.
