That Nines article is pretty discouraging. Let me see if I have this right: the Mobil 1 synthetic that was in my new car when it was delivered, and that I've used for oil changes since *doesn't meet Saab's specification???*
I thought I was safe changing synthetic every 4K-5K and Chuck's article makes it sound like even that regimen isn't good enough.
Chuck -- I have a question about your story. You wrote that you drained the synth from your Aero, ran through some dino oil and then refilled with the synth, which increased your oil pressure by about 10%. Was the oil the flush, or did you put some kind of flush in the dino oil?
