Consumer reports did a study a few years back to address not only the oil change issue but also to test if there were differences between oil brands.
They used new New Yok City cabs and took there engines apart at different intervals and observed their wear patterns under scanning electron microscopes. Based on this study, they found that most brands were even, synthetics did no better, and that 7500 miles was the maximum mileage before wear patterns appeared...

Incorrect. I use Mobile 1 because it has better lubricating properties.

Uh, did you just compare New York city cabs with our NSX High Pefromance engines?
As with tires, why buy a High Peformance car only to skimp on the the little things. $25,000 engine, vs $3-$5 oil. I'll take the extra insurance.

Are there any INDEPENDANT SCIENTIFIC STUDIES on it to prove it's value? I would research it before I'd put it in my $25,000 motor.

Hi all-first time here to the forum. Just had to chime in. Before using Mobil 1 you must visit spagthorpe.com and read the maintenance bulletins. Some very stong words about this stuff, at least how it works in motorcycles.
