I've got an 89 200 TQ with about 90,000 miles on it. Car as been pampered =
and is in great shape. Ive always used standard oil - played around with t=
he weight to get the lifters to quiet down but thats about it. Friend says=
I should switch to Mobil 1 - higher mileage formula.
Obviously I don't put allot of miles on this car each year. I currently en=
d up changing the oil more because of time passage than mileage. I recall =
reading something that says switching to synthetic may be a bad idea for ol=
der cars.
Query - is this a good idea? Would not mind putting in a product that allo=
ws me to go along time without changing oil. What impact will this stuff h=
ave on lifter noise - will I finally be able to throw out the Magic Mystery=
Oil? Does my car have too many miles on it to safely switch?
Thanks for the advice
Kevin
