I just have the Honda junk in there right now. Gonna run Castrol maxlife soon.

Mobil 1 seems to be coincidentally attributed to TCT failures in our cars.

Been using inexpensive 'synthetics' for years.. mobil1, Penzoil, etc. Last three cars I got rid of had 289k (still running strong), 229k (shot tranny, engine still strong, new owner has it at over 300k now), and 220k (now at 250k, still going strong). So, until an engine wears out due to poor oil before I want to get rid of it, I'll keep my money in the bank.
