Oil Change
 

Hey guys just got done with my first oil change. I decided to buy Mobile 1 Full synthetic (0w-20 of course) and the labeling has "Advanced Fuel Economy" on the label. This was the only 0w-20 that was available at the store from Mobile 1. Just kind of curious if I should searched for something different or will this perform well. Thanks in advance for your input!

0w-20 as a whole is designed for better fuel economy, they are just making it sound special

It will work just fine .....:thumbsup:

humfrz

Except you can 6 quarts of 0-20w for 30$ on Amazon search it! Mag1

Your fine.. Different varieties of the same.. Marketing at work..

been running that stuff for 5k km now, hasn't burnt any, im happy.

Awesome guys thanks. I have been driving it around and maybe its just me but the car "feels" like its running smoother. Maybe its just the tune at work lol

yeah i am running same thing

Just did my first oil change and used the same Mobil 1 :-)

I've always used Mobil 1 on my other cars and never had a problem. So we should be good!

Other than your choice of M1 all the 0-20 are considered energy conserving. Over the years in the subaru boxers we've found M1 to not be a good choice in terms of consumption we've seen extreme consumption by both the OEM Subaru Synthetic and the Mobil 1 variants compared to Amsoil and Motul.

did a track day with idemitsu 0w-20, and i burned no oil. I do have an oil cooler though

But how many of those boxers were BRZ's/FRS-s? :) M1, and all other ILSAC GF5 oils, are Resource Conserving (Energy Conserving is the old ILSAC GF-4 spec). Not much consumption in the twins on either oil looking at uoa's posted here:

True true, although, we don't like to test out stuff on our clients cars that we've seen issues with in the past. :) Oh and we buy Motul in 55gal drums so it's cheaper for our clients than M1 is :)
