You're right - it has! 
Use the Advanced Search rather than the search box at the bottom of the forum - you can find a link for it in the "READ THIS FIRST!" thread stuck at the top of the board.
People get WAY too worked up about oil. Any decent quality 5W30, 10W30, 5W40 or 10W40 will do the job just fine.

its exact name is Mobil Super S (apt name huh?
) 10w40 .. it is not Mobil 1as another poster stated. It is a semi - synthetiic, but I am intrigued. Your car has used no oil since your last service, and was put in your car by Honda, yet you want to go fully synthetic on your next change .... why ?

These 'snakeoil' salesmen have a lot to answer for.
Maybe they should be selling pensions - far more lucrative
Castrol Magnetec in mine, 9K of hard driving and less than a 2mm drop on the 'stick. Engine is 14K and run in properly.
