Thankfully, I got a number of Pennz Platiunum European Formula for $21 /5qt jug. "The evidence demands a verdict".

And Valvoline sucks at marketing, both Advanced Full Synthetic (previous stickered as SynPower) and Modern Engine are Dexos1Gen2, So basically it's pointless. I think if they're trying to compete with M1 EP/AP they should have called it something else other than "modern engine" because plenty of people want the absolute best oil for their older vehicles - perhaps SynPower Extreme or something.

Not sure if the sexy Nikki Leon caught my eye or the Mobil 1 But seriously,I am wondering about this oil,and trying it on my Accord (the non-high mileage formula). The only Extended Performance M1 I ever tried was the 15W50 in my 300ZX around 15 or so years ago. 1996 Nissan 300ZX 5-speed,Arctic Pearl(#175 of 300) Quaker State Ultimate Durability 10W30 2012 Honda Accord Coupe EX-L 2.4,auto,San Marino Red Pennzoil Platinum 5W20

The only Extended Performance M1 I ever tried was the 15W50 in my 300ZX around 15 or so years ago. I just put 5 quarts of it in my 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler 3.6, which specifies 0w20. It doesn't meet Chrysler's MS6395 spec (I'm sure it exceeds it wildly), so I may have sinned. Oh well, not the first time. I left the factory fill in for 2007 miles. I took a sample for Blackstone. I'll run this stuff for at least 3,000 miles and maybe as far as 5,000 before changing it. I'll capture and send a sample then, too. At that point, I'll probably go with M1 AP 0w20 and run it for full year OCI's.
