Is this correct? I thought Mobil 1 15w50 synth is full synth but I'm no expert.
I was reading that this Saab shop believes that the 0w, 5w and even 10w oils are for CAFE ratings and don't actually help your engine but hurt it. Most people don't live in -50 degree temps.
I wish I could fine the link to the article, it was very well written and were observantions by a long time Saab engien rebuilder.
Best, KB.
