That is not proof! Did you attend college? You have yet to show any proof that the blown engine was caused by Mobil1. You like to spew macho automotive lies. Lets hope the readers of this thread see past your bravado bunk...

i got a 1992 Corolla, I hardly use expensive oil like Amsoil or Purple. I only used the Full Synthetic that's either Mobil 1 or BOGO promotion at Advance auto part or anything that is Full Synthetic while it's on sale. The car is at 200K, hardly got any problems just rotate switch oil at 3k, keep up with the Maintenance and it's ok.
Using royal purple on my yaris now, i don't see any differences.
I think as long as you keep up with the maintence and use full sys, it's will be the same. It's a yaris.

That's the way I see it.

I don't know if you're thinking of me but my super-duper low mileage '05 GTO had lots of piston-slap and wear metals, and I used M1 and M1 XP more often than not...on 3k OCI.

MOBIL 1 SUCKS DONKEY

Actually, I am running the Mobil CLEAN 5000 for break-in in my Yaris which is just about complete. Yes, I have not been a MOBIL fan of late, but this oil seems reasonable. It may need a little BOOST around 3K which I do in the way of draining a litre then topping off with fresh. That way the add-pack is replenished and you are good to go to the 5000.
