Mobil 1 0W-20 Annual Protection VOA, TBN/TAN

[wemay]

PQIA recently did a VOA on the 5W-20. I doubt there is much difference on the add pack from the 0W-20 and it looks beefer than the BS one. That's the physical elemental test. Organics? Who knows:

Noack is spot on to what XOM gave me. XOM's numbers are very accurate. I've noticed this on the Russian Oil club site and also Spanish Youtube channel.

0w20 - 8.9%
5w20 - 8.5%

*Mobil 1 AP Noack

Mobil 1 customer service provided me with the Noack values for their AP 0w20 and 5w20, which I believe are the best oils on the market for GDI engines calling for a 0w20. The only possibly better option would be Driven DI20. Mobil 1 Annual Protection 0W-20: 8.9% Mobil 1 Annual Protection 5W-20...

Does anybody know if Mobil changed the formula when AP went from dexos to dexos gen2? I'm thinking not since the calcium was already low?
I'm asking because mine is the original dexos and I'm wondering if it's the same as the PQIA sample.

No I don't think they did. They were the first to have dexos gen2 and first to formulate towards LSPI. Maybe some tweaks but no major re-formulation.
