Mobile 1 makes a 0w-40 full syn, It flows like a 0 weight, but protects like a 40, what do you guys think, bad or good idea? (also, i'm running mobile 1 5w-30 full syn.)

i agree, some people are so picky about their fluids, i was merely bringing up the topic of that green european synthetic to see if anyone else had read about it and was curious to start a conversation about it.
i put the cheapest coolant, antifreeze, brake fluid, power steering fluid i can find in my car, the only thing i wont go cheap on is oil and transmission oil.. and i use whatever oil filter is the cheapest. |
