1 million miles oil test


I'm surprised at how little wear was on the engine after one million miles.

Dude I'm an engineer in the Lubrication industry - I know of what I speak. I test oils weekly.
The problem is some of the additives they add into their oil have a tendency to eat away at the seals prematurely.
I don't wanna spend anymore time bashing RP. All I can say is they have a great PR team.
Stick with Mobile1 - the lube properties are every bit as good without the worries wink.gif
[And no - Mobile doesn't pay me anything - altho they should]

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
