I work at a dealership, and they use Mobil 1 TriSynthetic 0W-40 from the factory for Porsche... so that's what I use.
I use 20w50 in the summer, and I just put in 10w30 for the winter...car starts up much better afterwards...oh yeah, I run mobil1 full synth
I agree!! Mobil 1 15W50 is the best for vr6
Mobil 1 15W50
Changed it for Mobil 1. My owner's manual specifies API CD oil, so the mobil 1 should be fine (says it is suitable for CF applications).
API (SF) oil usualy contains way more detergent than Diesel CF grade oil. I'm not sure what this kind of oil can do to your engine... But I would suggest using Mobil Delvac 1 oil.
Here's something kinda interesting, when using Mobil 1 5w30, I experienced a higher rate of oil consumption than with Mobil 1 0w-40...I was losing approx .5 quarts every 2k miles...the 0w-40 loses nothing between 3k...
Same here. My oil temps are on average 20 degrees F cooler with the 5w-40 as compared to Mobil 1 15w-50.
Mobil 1 0W-40. Specifically engineered for European cars.
3500 to 4500 on my VR6. always mobil 1 since 20k miles....now with 88k miles.
