Yeah, but since those of us who know better only use Mobil Water for lubricating the hinges of our doors, so no harm done even if it too old.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

How will the stuff keep, assuming the container seal isn't broken? I'm just wondering how far out I can stock up on an excellent price.

POST 2Original post

Unopened synthetic oil will last longer that you or your children will. Mobil themselves recommends 5 year max but they are in the business to get you to buy newer oil at higher prices.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ha ha...nothing like being outlived by your own motor oil. Thanks for the info.

Except MobilWater, which will evaporate at room temperature, even in a sealed bottle.

Dude, you're way off. Unopened containers will last 1 million years max, but I personally would not risk pushing it that far. LOL Jlb532, all kidding aside, stock up if you find it on sale.
