not quite, fleet users do not agree that synthetics prolong engine life, in
testing that I have conducted on industrial engines at rated load (your 5K
would not last very long in those loads) the opposite was proven...... wear
was increased, oil consumption more than doubled and seals life was shorten
significantly....in INDEPENDENT tests conducted by consumer magazine, no
significant improvement was discovered using synthetic oils, is your dealer
and Mobil have better information than Audi and consumer magazine?
Why not follow the manufacture recommendations..... your dealer is not an
authority greater than Audi, is he?
