So please explain to us, if, as you outline the xW-40 gives better mileage why my experiences are exactly opposite your thesis.
Given:
Last summer, I went from 5W-30 Mobil 1 to 0W-30 Mobil 1 and the results were higher mileage on the 0W-30. Dramatically higher. 6-9% higher from tank to tank over the 5W-30. Vehicle was a 2002 SAAB 9-3 with approx 15,000 miles on the odometer. Or is this just the difference from 5W to 0W ?
Mobil claims the 0W-30 Super Syn "Delivers the best fuel economy in the Mobil 1 line" Source: Mobil 1 website. What don't they understand, that you do ?
