my v6 consumed almost a quart during the first 3,000 miles then it stopped (zero oil consumption!).

No you aren't a guinea pig. I have been doing extended drain interval for several years now on a chipped 1.8T. I run M1 5W-30 and average 17-20k between oil changes and currently have 200k miles on my '02.
Mobil 1 M1-301 Like the Champion, this filter is made by Champion Industries. However, it uses a unique end plate and a thicker can that make it the strongest filter available for wide-distribution retail sale. It also does not use the fragile paper media of the Champion filter. I’m happy to say that this filter is NOT a fake. It is definitely a unique design. It uses a synthetic fiber element that can filter out very small particles and is much stronger than the fragile, Champion paper media. It is rated just under the Purolator Pure One as far as filtering capability, but is still very much above conventional paper filters. It also has a very strong construction to withstand high-pressure spikes during start-up. Given the choice between the Purolator Pure One and the Mobil 1 filters, I would choose the Mobil 1 because of the restriction concerns of the Pure One and that pesky assembly string. However, as with all Mobil 1 products, expect to pay 2 - 3 times as much for this filter.
Been using the 205 filter for 30K. I drive it pretty hard, so far so good.
ive been using the mobil 1 filter, my car is redlined frequently, and has seen the track on numerous occasions, ive had no problems.
I have one on my car and it works very well.
I used to use Bosch before I went synthetic, now I use Amsoil with a Mobil 1 filter, 10k between changes.
I've always used Mobil1 0W-40 and never had oil-related problems. In fact, my Dad used it exclusively in his 1988 Chevy S-10 pickup and only changed his oil once a year for the life of the truck. Today it's still running strong on the original engine with over 200k miles on it. And that's only changing the oil ONCE A YEAR!
use M1 0w-40 in my girls Beetle S. works like a charm. currently i'm using AMSOIL 5w-40. going to switch to M1 0w-40 after this.
im running 5-30 mobil 1 full syn. ive notice the car is QUIETER with less valve noise, its been 2000 miles so far on the syn oil, and its still clear, lookin got 8-10K outta it...
