[s-cars] Re Oil analysis

[Tom Green]

What's the point ?  We already have the Mann filter with a long history
of good Audi service.  The filter media is made for synthetic oil and it
is designed for 30,000 Km or 2 years service.  Is it too expensive at  
$6,
or what ?  You can't believe that mobil suddenly is making a superior
product, given that they are degrading protection for mileage in their
oil.  Besides, most have agreed they aren't leaving the filter on past
7500 mi even if they don't change oil.
