Castrol GTX 5W30. Maybe I should switch to Mobil 1 after reading this?

I run Mobil Delvac Super in my turbo diesel. Dino Oil, I'm doing service every 2500-3000 miles so any synthetic in the engine is a waste IMO.

I use the Mobil 1 synthetic chassis grease for lubrication, and royal purple for everything else [gear oil in hubs, differentials, t-case, and atf for the transmission] , mostly because a few friends run Royal Purple in desert racing and logged a 10 degree temperature drop vs a non-synthetic.

That being said any good quality synthetic would do just as good as a job as RP I think.

I'll have to switch differential oil to the AM General / Cognis stuff when I put in my e-lockers in a few weeks.

I've switched to Mobile 1 in my '03. But these dinky oil filters suck! Really thinking about remote filter kit and run a large sized filter, or dual small ones.

I just recently purchased an 05' H2 and was wondering how many quarts the engine takes? I guess I'll go with Mobil 1 since pretty much everyone in here probably knows more about hummers than I do Thanks

We run Mobil 1 Extended Performance Fully Synthetic "Guaranteed for 15,000 miles" and we change the oil around 10,000 miles. Never had a problem and we have some h2's nearing 200,000 miles that are 25 passenger limos and are hauling much more weight everyday than normal hummers.

I use Mobile 1 Full Synthetic in my Corvette and my fiancé's V6 Mustang.
