[QUOTE="ovrlnd, post: 1052173, member: 19712"] I've run Mobil 1 in all my cars. '89 Saab Turbo - old style turbo that you were supposed to let idle to cool the turbo down, which I never did. Changed the oil whenever I remembered about it and it was convenient - somewhere between 5k and 10k miles, I'd assume. I had it for 18 years and the engine was the only thing on that car that never broke. '00 Saab Viggen - HO turbo, more modern with oil circulators and such. Same intervals as above and no problems ever. I think it had 80k on it when we sold it, so you wouldn't have expected anything in that short of time. '03 BMW X5 - tells you when to change the oil based on some algorithm. Dumbest indicator ever in that it's a series of lights that go out rather than come on, so I never notice it. I became the dog car at some point and I promptly change the oil whenever it dawns on me that it's been like two years since I've done it. No issues other than the fact that all BMW i6's guzzle oil - the rate of guzzlement hasn't changed since it was new though, so I'm good with it. '12 Merc C300 - this one is supposed to monitor the oil condition and tell you when to change it. It comes up with a big warning telling you to do so every time you start it up, so I actually pay attention to it. It's got 75k on it now and I've taken it in for service four times, so it's asking for an oil change every 15 to 20k miles or so. No problems yet. '17 Tesla - still on order, but I suspect that oil changes will be rare. '64 356c - this little guy has a bypass oil filter which means that it filters the oil whenever it -- wait, no, it never filters the damn oil. It's wishful thinking at best. It had 500k+ on the motor when I got it so it's indestructible. I could fill it with maple syrup and it would probably run. [/QUOTE]
