I'm apparently the least informed person here (never done an oil analysis), but FWIW I seem to be fine with Mobil-1 0w40 on a 996.2 with 208k miles.
Mobil 1 5w50. Temperate climate. Car always garaged. Annual changes at 4000 miles. Zero top ups required.
I use Mobil in my economy cars but Valvoline in my drift car , either oil is perfectly fine tho tbh
I always get the cheapest oil with the correct specifications. I use that mobil1 in my hybrid Camry. Works great.
I’m using Amsoil Signature oil.
Yesterday I took my car in for an oil change and got amsoil. I read countless comments of people hating on the price, this and that, but let me tell you somthing, that amsoil ain't a gimmick or a rip off. My car drove sooooo much better afterwards, it kinda shocked me. Smoother, seems faster, more. Consistent shifts, just left me feeling like she felt the best version of herself.
I use Mobil 1. Meets MB spec and can get 5 quarts at Walmart for $30.
I used to use Mobil 1 in my IS 350. I can confirm my engine was quieter on cold stars when I switched to Ultra Plat.
Usually, motor oil goes bad because the additive packs that are in the oil get burned off or used up. I'd imagine that this new Mobil1 Annual Performance has more additive packs than what standard Mobil1 has but it's probably able to go that far because you're going to have to add additional oil that gets burned off because every car burns oil.
I used 0-40 mobil 1. It turned out pretty bad for me, I ended up using more oil than I ever had before. The car smelled like a friggin chainsaw with that stuff. The engine only had like 100k on it, but the blowby was horrible with 0-40. This was just my experience. I use mobil 10-40 now and no problems so far.
