I noticed that too in the M1's product guide. They did it in their 0W-20s for some reason. The AFE 0W-20 is the same way, 650 and 750 phos and zinc. The other Mobil 1 varieties and viscosities like the 5W-20, 5W-30, 10W-30 are all 800/900 phos and zinc.

Yeah, it is like Valvoline saying that their Advanced 0W-20 wouldn't work well in hybrids engines, they had to come out with a specific oil for hybrids. Contrast Valvoline approach to introduce a new hybrid oil to that of Mobil. Mobil says they test Mobil 1 in hybrid engines and it does well...

I noticed some brands use the red color to signify high temperature grease, instead of general multi-purpose grease. The red high temperature can be used in wheel bearings with disc brakes, whereas general purpose grease is not to be used in brake disc wheel bearings. It is not made to take the...

A Mobil filter with issues. Yep seriously everyone makes a few Lators! Mann & Hummel makes the original, and best WORST! It's no accident they're making this new batch of M1 filters with issues. Yes, they are making filters that have issues (slices in the ADBV) or torn media. It is...

Originally Posted by HiPowerShooter Do people really get THAT excited about oil comparisons? It's all pretty much a crapshoot, luck and a little common sense in maintenance.

Originally Posted by harry j I have 560,000 miles on my Civic now, I think There was 541,000 miles when I had my valves adjusted. Very nice! So clean, and the metal is not even really discolored at all! Mind me asking what oil you are using?

Originally Posted by nthach Before swapping out the ICM, I'd test it - Honda has the procedure outlined in their service literature. They rarely ever fail. The coil is easy but I'm leery of non-OEM parts. Have the valves ever been adjusted? Might want to do that first on a cold engine. It's an...

Originally Posted by mk378 The typical ICM failure is that the engine will work fine for several miles then suddenly stall completely dead and crank but not start. After a few minutes to cool off it can be re-started. Testing during the time that it won't start reveals there is no spark. If the...

Hey Everyone, My brother and I believe the ignition control module on his 1997 Civic is going bad. He is going to replace it in the next couple of days, but, he was wondering if the ignition coil should be replaced at the same time? Is it a good idea to replace both? Thanks,

Hey everyone, Just saw this video. Looks like Valvoline wanted to follow Mobil's example and show engine teardown results. They not only have the engine that has used Valvoline its entire life, but, also one that has not been maintained very well. Enjoy...

Originally Posted by Jackson_Slugger I don't like the three tiers (or more with all the Mobil 1's) of synthetic being offered, it's confusing and unnecessary. Can anyone tell definitely if there is much difference between this that Super Syn as far as base oil? is the add pack different? There...

Our dad's 2006 Tundra's OEM battery died last summer. So, around 13 years it lasted. I think it was a Panasonic battery.

Our local Meijer stocks the Mobil 1 Truck and SUV oil. When they first started putting it on the shelf, it was $35.00, after a couple of months, it has dropped down to $28.00.
