In case you missed it, here is a link to a Recording of the Webinar.
There was mention that they believe Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is far-n-away WAY better than Mobil1.
Isn't Pennzoil the recommended factory fill for the Gen-V's?

Listening now, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is all I use in my cars. Lets see if I made the right choice after the Video.There was mention that they believe Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is far-n-away WAY better than Mobil1.

According to the long Facebook post by Dick Winkles (AFTER he retired), a couple of years ago, Pennzoil was NOT what he would recommend.
I read the same Article, the only car I dont currently run it in is the Viper, I run 10w-40 HM. The 7 other cars Get Pennzoil.

Yea this seems to be a never ending debate.
IMH(amateur)O these modern synthetic oils are leagues better than the oils of yesteryear, so I haven't been too worried about the different brands. I've used Mobil1 0W-40, 5W-40 and 15W-50, LiquiMoly MolyGen 5W-40 and RedLine 10W-40. Right now she's running Mobil1 0W-40 (cuz its a smog test year..but likely will never run 0W-40 again).
Guess my big take-aways from the webinar are:
1. The bit about Pennzoil being WAY better than Mobil1.
I'm still kinda shocked about the opinion was they're so drastically different.
2. The repeated recommendation on the cadence of oil changes.
Every 5K miles or 5-6 months. I'm lucky to drive her 1K miles in a year and change oil every year. The drains are still translucent in appearance. Probably not gonna change.
3. Start and idle to warm-up without actually driving anywhere is very bad. Guess it has to do with rev's to increase oil pressure. Darn, gonna have to drive her more!
4. The impact COVID had on the supply chain for the elemental components of all oils and how it changed formulations (without any notification to the customer base). That could have huge implications.
There was more.. interesting stuff.

Pennziol is GARBAGE!! As they went to Pennzoil for the gen 5, suddenly they are having massive engine issues. Yeah, no thanks.In case you missed it, here is a link to a Recording of the Webinar.

Did they discuss why they are using water(0w-16) to lubricate an engine?
I thought the Engine issues in the get 5 were because of Contaminated engines and they included a last step in the build to clean them better. Am I wrong on that?
I Did hear that Mobil 1 changed there Formula.
These guys sound like they know there stuff though. I tend to listen to people like this because they have been in it there whole life and that's all they do. Kinda like me with Computer Virtualization!
