Synthetics???/

["Bob D'Amato" <Bob.Damato@snetel.com>]

Hate to bring up an old topic again...

I just changed the oil in my car (90 20V) and replaced it with the Mobil 
1 synthetic oil.  5w30 (winter coming and all...)
when I started the engine, cold, it read the usual 5+ bar. After it 
heated up a while, it read +-3bar at idle. Now I thought the whole damn 
point of synthetics is they dont lose their viscosity over the 
temperature range. Its no better than the old dino I used to use. am I 
missing something here??? Did I forget to carry the 2?? :)
