So, I was at wally world tonight and walked down the oil aisle as I always do and came across something new: M1 0w-40 European Blend. I never noticed "European Blend" on the M1 0w-40 bottle before. Do I just need to pay better attention, or is this a new oil from Mobile?

The Mobil 1 0W40 I`ve seen says "European Car Formula" on the bottle,I think.
Mobile 1 from Alabama?

If you are paying that close of attention to the label, you would notice there is no "E" in Mobil.
They changed the name a while back - that is the oil I try to use in my Jetta, either that or Castrol Syntec 5w-40. Those are the only two oils I have seen that meet the VW spec. I only look at Wally World or Advance Auto, maybe there are others. I love it, ever since I switched my oil consumption dropped off to normal levels. Before on any type of 5w-30 I was using ~1 qt/1000 miles!!!! On the VW-spec oils, I use maybe 0.5 qt per OCI which for me is usually ~7.5K.

Mobil1 0w-40 has been around for close to 10 years now. Now, about Mobile... that's a new one I think. Never seen it.

Rule #1 at BITOG: Don't ever call it Mobile. It's Mobil.

Hi,
QP - There is only one M1 0W-40 on the Porsche and Audi-VW Lists. These are another five versions of M1 0W-40 on these Lists with additional words in their titles such s "Artic" and etc
It shows the complexity of Marketing requirements..........
