No wonder I don't use Mobil!
When you call and speak to them, they advise it is perfectily safe for new vehicles and it's actually conditioners not swellers.
Thanks. That's what I woulda figured but it's not what the dummies put on their website! Despite that I gotta admit their website is better than SOPUS's is. Or Castrol's.
