something along the line of... high amount of detergents and low level of anti-wear in the additives.

If it's good enough for Porsche to recommend then it's good enough for me. Although Porsche did put a potentially defective IMS bearing in my car.. hmmm...

Rotella T6 (5w40) is also still on sale $35 a 5L jug, great oil for 996TT/GT2 amongst other newer M96- engines...

Actually, I do like Mobil 1... It keeps our backlog full.

Trust that the decal on your car wasn't given to Mobil for free.

^ Performance Improvements stocks it, I checked in with the Toronto location on Saturday. I'm trying to get my friend who has an import shop to start stocking it for us as well.

My name is on the DT40 container as the developer, so I am a little biased. I will use NOTHING else.
