1. Who said Mobil 1 is awesome on here? Very few of us. Most of us just says that "I use Mobil 1 in my car. Runs great and had no problems so far."

Nobody said omg "MOBIL 1 FTW OMGGG! BEST OIL FOR YOUR CAR...never will I use another brand."

This just says something about you. You're just very insecure that you have to give condescending remarks to others. Maybe you're the one who would act like that.

2. Well, your data doesn't really SAY much except one oil MIGHT be better than the other, but doesn't give an overall picture of how damaging one oil is to your engine in the long run. Again, all of these oils are classified TOP TIER synthetics. Like I repeated before, your engine may have a problem since you're the minority having an issue with Mobil 1.

3. How is it funny? There's a reason why Mobil 1 is the top selling synthetic oil in the world. If it was really that bad, don't you think people would stop buying it? If the oil was TRULY harmful to our cars, wouldn't people stop getting it? Like I said before, it may NOT be the BEST oil for our cars, but it is definitely GOOD ENOUGH to have it last. I'm not bashing any other oil company out there. You are the one who is. Castrol Syntec or PP are fine oils also. I would run them in my car if they were on sale.

This is exactly like the iPhone vs. top Android phone argument going on here. They're both GOOD phones and certainly awesome to the average everyday user.

No point in arguing with your narrow-mindedness here. You're just insecure about how others feel about Mobil 1 that you have to start bashing everyone's choices.

Make sure you check that engine though, I sense that there's a problem with your car.

Alright, so are you then suggesting that your data IS complete then?

It's a rather simple matter of logic; either it is or it isn't.

no im saying that there is some data out there to help a person make their choice on which oil affects their motor . imo its better then no data at all and going off of logic

Go check your previous posts...you personally asked another guy from another section on g35 to report how when he used Mobil 1 oil that it was consuming more quarts than when he switched to dino oil.

I'm sorry, but do you see me recruiting others in your crusade of saying how Mobil 1 isn't good?

u should head over to this thread lol and give your experience

Sorry, but unfortunately, your bad experience with Mobil 1 doesn't mean that it is a bad oil. It also doesn't mean you should go look for others who agree with you to post on here.

^wats wrong with asking a member with some direct experience to reply on here? its relevent to the topic. it helps others when they read threads like this. its better to see personal experience on here rather then "i read somewhere that a person had this experience with it"

lol like is said talk about over exxageration

No it's not an exaggeration. What's different this time is that you PERSONALLY kept telling others that Mobil 1 was a bad oil, even when we tried to ask you for some data that is actually significant.

You don't get the point nor do you understand statistics. Vqsmile made logical remarks but you have made no attempt to understand them. You gave out condescending and impolite remarks to those who USE Mobil 1 oil or even suggest that Mobil 1 is a good oil and then are nice to those who don't use Mobil 1. I think everyone can sense the pattern you're doing here.

You've made your point already, but it doesn't really mean anything. Again, you should check your engine for some problem, because any oil, no matter if it is Mobil 1, your savior Castrol Syntec, or dino oil, shouldn't be making clunking noises in your car when used.

speaking of the blackstone labs oil analysis if the data they provide is of no significance they why are people wasting their time and money even doing the tests? for fun? and if it the results are unfavorable how should one respond? by not changing the oil they use and try something else?

or continue using the oil becus there is no data as to how these results affect the motor anyway?

seems like the only good reply here is if its a good positive response in favor of mobil1 lol

btw the chart serves the purpose of showing how certain oil brands perform to one another. in terms of how it affects the engine in the long or short run is the insignificant part. but showing how it affects ur motor per interval to me is quite significant. who wants to wait years/miles later to see how it affected the motor. the chart is there for u to take into consideration of the affects. u interpret it how u want. some will think its no big deal. for me, its a big a enough deal for me to not want to use mobil1 ever again.

Congratulations. Use Castrol Oil. No use in arguing with you. Nobody is stopping you from using Castrol.

Your logic as to why people use Blackstone Labs is astounding. Most of us don't actually use Blackstone Labs, and the ones who do are completely paranoid and obsessed about what oil they have in their car and how it affects their engine. You're one of them. Thanks for playing.

To the normal person, any oil will be fine. There's no point in nitpicking all these small things about synthetic oil when honestly, dino oil will work just as well.

People have driven over a million miles using Mobil 1. http://www.mobiloil.com/USA-English/...Mile_Saab.aspx
