I was just wondering if anyone has ever used the new mobil oil thats suppose to be good for 15,000 miles? theyre suppose to be fully synthetic. Its really not that much more expensive than regular synthetic oil which kinds of makes me suspicious but then again i've heard of bimmers that goes a whole year without oil changes.

also anyone know why most stores dont have 26" wiper blades??

haven't tried the new 15K oil and i don't think that i am.

i had to go to 3 different stores to find the right size wiper blades

I just bought some of that extended 5w-30 oil, I have no idea how long i'm going to leave it in. I drive 90% expressway so i would think I can leave it in a while.

at that price it should last 15,000 miles. They have yet to provide a oil filter that can do the same.

Where can you find the new mobil 1? Everywhere I look still has the old mobil 1.

I just went to walmart and I saw the new mobil 1 oil's and they are all really cheap. Is this correct or is a mistake by walmart or something. They have 5000, 7500, and 15000 oils.

They had 5000 mi oil for 1.83/qt, 7500 was like 2.83/qt, and 15000 for 4.18/qt. I'm really tempted to go for the 5000 mi oil since its less than have the price of the old mobil 1

The 5000 and 7500 oils are Dino oils, not synthetic.

If the bottle said synthetic on it, then you better grab as many as you can before walmart realizes the mistake they made.

Does anyone know the answer. When mobil 1 switch to supersyn label, was it a true synethic. Back when the whole castrol vs mobil case, I used mobil 1 supersyn and it just changed to supersyn, I thought I read that it wasnt a true synethic. So where there a time with mobil 1 wasnt a true synethic. Now it is again?????????

hey whats a good brand of wipers to use? i have the anco ones on and they really suck, leaves a streak every time. are the rain-x ones better? or is there a brandi should invest in?

also i put in 4 quarts of the extended performances today and i guess its a little smoother than before. I can't feel the car shift now. i know the manual says 4 and a quarter quarts but is it ok to put in only 4?
