I noticed a massive difference switching from 0w-30 to Mobil 1 FS 5w-40 in my NG 93. Engine sounded better, burned WAY less oil, and no noticeable fuel economy or power difference. I also used Ceratec a few times and that made it feel smoother.
Ran quieter on 5-40 heavy duty diesel Mobil 1
Felt more powerful, but that may have been a perception from quieter and smoother power. Others on Saabnet reported the same.
If you're oil change is specified for longer, buy Mobil 1 in the correct spec grade and change it then, you will save money and use less, which will keep your cash in your pocket not the oil industry's.
Make sure to use dexos GM approved oil or that thing will start making weird noises. I’ve only used Mobil 1 and not had any issues. Stay away from the cheapest stuff. You might regret it later.
I'm at 115k on my 18' Pilot exclusively using Mobile1 0W-20 synthetic (green gas milage label), changing myself every 8,500miles. I replace with the M1 advanced 110A oil filter and change the engine air filter + cabin filter as well, since new. Discard oil is dark, with a smell thats mild but says, "it's time".
I do use Mobil1, PenzPlatinum, or Valvoline and replace the filter with each change.
Mobil3000 5W-30 even boosted my oil pressure and helped with cooling.
140K '19 Tigi 2.0T, switched from Valvoline 5W20 Syn to Mobil 1 0W20 ESP (Dexos D). Changed oil due to oil consumption and secondary air injection DTC. The "latest" member of the Mobil 1 family touts lower emissions (less vapor in the PCV system).
Honda oil is overpriced and mid. Mobil1 is just mid. Neither are good regardless of the kind of consumer you are.
Yea mobile 1 is among the bottom end of full synthetics. Even the Walmart cheapest supertech and valvoline will slightly beat mobile 1 in reducing metal wearing.
