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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm down a quart and can't find Mobil1 0/ 40 locally. I found 0/ 30. Can I mix in a quart of 0/30 with the 0/40 thats already in there until I get around to a complete change?

POST 2Original post

Should not cause any problem, although I might be inclined towards 10/40 or 15/50 if available. You can even mix in non-synthetic if you have to, it won't curdle. That 0/40 was a starting point anyway, after extensive use it is some other value. At least on the 3.4L Porsche specified pretty much every value (synthetic) from 5/30 to 15/50 depending upon the ambient temperature.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
