I run 0w40 Mobil1 year round. I used to use 15w50, too thick for me. Car runs a bit cooler (oil temps) and revs easier with the 0w40. In the cool months, it gets up top nice and fast. No problems, I like the stuff.
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.
