Quote from Frango1 :
So this begs the question (to save some of us a bunch of research), which mainstream oils are true synthetic (V, IV?)?

And, how much does it really matter?

While threads go on and on over at Bobistheoilguy, I would guess there really aren't that many modern vintage cars whose engines have seized up or blown up or whatever because they were using regular oil, let alone whether they were using "true synthetic" vs "almost true synthetic". If you are changing the oil according to the maintenance minder on your car, and you are using motor oil in the proper weight, I'm guessing most every car these days will have its engine last 150-200K miles easily. For many people, that is a long time of ownership of that car (we drive less than 7500 miles per year)

Wonder how this stuff does in 540rat's testing?

I see lots of new brand names in his ranks these days. SP is looking legit, just like SN proved to be over SM. #progress
Oh god. It's bad enough people post PF links. Here you are bringing up 540rat. No. Bad Nikolai. /smack

Mainstream? None.

Amsoil SS, Redline, HPL….


It's not so much "do I need true synthetic?" but more how the overall formula does. If a Grp3 mixed with a little PAO/ester does as good or better than a fully PAO/ester splashed with some Grp3, then eh.

Quote from 95m3ltw :
I dont have a link but kept paying attention to the two major ones. First one involved Castrol Syntec when they claimed to be better than Mobil 1 etc and what was considered "synthetic" came into question. Courts ruled that group III bases could be considered synthetic (99% of them are not and are based on mineral oil or petroleum) and labelled the same as a group IV or V synthetic base stock. At that point, most brands started making cheaper "synthetics" using the group III base stocks, which scientifically are considered semi synthetic.

A popular oil was the Mobil 1 euro blend which was considered true synthetic group IV and could be called that in countries like Germany which have stricter labelling requirements etc. Mobil 1 stopped making it and replaced the oil with a group III based oil which can not be called a true synthetic in Germany.

Here is a link to lots of information about the subject but not a fan that it is on Amsoil's website so take that with a grain of salt.

Seriously? Crude oil forms from anaerobic decay of ancient organic matter. Dinosaurs are by definition ancient organic matter. It's a proven fact that dinosaur remains, among many other ancient life forms, are in crude oil. Get your facts straight before screaming "fake news".
How did the dinosaurs get a mile under ground?

The same way all the other organic matter did...sediment buildup and geologic activity. The distance under the surface correlates to the age of the deposit. The older it is, the further down you'll generally find it, with a few exceptions based on local geological anomalies. For instance, an ancient deep sinkhole may hold relics from a much later age than the surrounding soil due to things falling from the surface to the bottom of it. Tectonic plate subduction can also move things up and down, depending on which side of the subduction zone they're on.

Interesting discussion here; I'm learning more about motor oil than I ever thought I needed to know. At the end of the day, I'm thankful that there are some fairly rigid performance specifications in place by the likes of GM and SAE that generally keep motor oil quality at high levels, unless you're buying the dollar store brand. Slickdeals allows me to buy full synthetic for less than the regular price of bargain basement conventional oil; synthetic is all I run for the last 15 years or so.

A buddy and I used to have fun at the fast food drive thru...if the total was something like $8.83 I'd hand the window person a ten dollar bill and a quarter. You can actually watch their brain melting down in real time; their facial expressions are priceless.

Yeah I know where I'm going when I die haha

How long ago were you in college? Cash registers that calculated change have been the norm for over 100 years. You push $10.25 and it shows $1.42.
