Not sure what you are recommending Steve.
Are you saying that Mobil 1 0w-40 true synthetic would be a good oil for the 9-5?
I have a 2004 9-5 and I have been using 0w-40 since I got the car new. I believe the original recommendation (as per the sticker under the hood, was definately Mobil 1 and am fairly certain 0w-40.
I recently switched to 0w-40 European spec...for the 9-5 engine, is that better or worse than the nonEuro 0w-40?
Not to muddy things up, but I've recently read that Mobil 1 makes a number of synthetics and some are 100% and some are not. My eyes glazed over with all the different variations and forcing one to read the 'fine print' as to the part number that corresponded to the 100% synthetic. I bookmarked the article but can't find it at the moment....comments on this being true or not?
