I have used Mobil 1 since it has been available in Australia, at great expense I might add,in a 99 8 valve turbo, 900 16 valve turbo and now in my 9000 aero, and I am yet to have any problems at all with any of them. Mobil ran a BMW around the nurburgring circuit for a million miles on mobil 1 changing the oil at every specified service, and when they stripped the engine down afterwards they did NOT find any components that were out of manufacturers tolerance.
