Its got similar hydrotreated dino base stock to Platinum or Syntec or Synpower - but it aint 70%/ PAO 15% POE /10% AN that I would prefer to see in a real syn ( from ANYONE). For stout oil hard to beat RL or M1R4T. Doest really matter unless you are out to beat the tar out of the po lil enJINE on a daily basis. Hey I got snowblower oil in mine - hows that for oil boredom

Next time you get bored you could give the Brad Penn "green" Racing Oil a try. Brad Penn appears to offer a pretty good line-up of oils. |

Pretty for sure there won't be a UOA on the M1 0W30 that I'm running now because the Yaris might already be sold; the guy is still thinking about it. If it sells I'll probably get a '08 xD that I've got my eye on...probably won't mess with sending in oil samples for the xD.

I use 20W50 semi synthetic.
What do I get by switching to 5Wanything? This is a real hot country with summer temps at 45 Deg. C. Plus starting May on.

The guy backed out on buying the Yaris, and after driving the xD for a couple of weeks I've decided to not sell the Yaris and get rid of the xD, so guess I'm back to the plan of doing UOA testing for both the M1 and Wolf's Head.
