Keeps your engine running like new

Mobil 1 advanced full synthetic motor oils deliver exceptional performance and protection for vehicles of all ages and for all driving conditions – normal to extreme. 

Mobil 1 oils keep engines running like new by helping:

  • Combat sludge and deposit buildup 
  • Reduce wear
  • Control oil breakdown

Mobil 1 motor oils offer a full range of temperature protection: For cold starts, the oil keeps flowing as low as -40 degrees Fahrenheit, and it can withstand high temperatures of up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

In fact, Mobil 1 is the World’s Leading Synthetic motor oil brand, recommended by more car builders and used by more NASCAR® teams than any other brand of motor oil. What’s more, Mobil 1 oils meet or exceed the toughest standards of Japanese, European and U.S. car builders.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I use Mobil 1......Period....And Here's Why... I've had my 1998 Ford F150 with a 4.6L SOHC V-8 since new. I run only Mobil 1 5w30. Drove it 266,000 miles until it blew a head gasket. Where we tore it apart - absolutely NO WEAR - ZERO. Clean inside and no wear. Cylinder walls still had a crosshatch pattern. Crank and cam journals were void of wear and we went back with standard sized bearings. I can provide images of this engine when it was torn down. Mobil 1 for life.....FOR LIFE. Engine is now rebuilt and ready to go back in my truck. Had I taken better care of my cooling system it would never have blown the head gasket. It would have gone way beyond 300,000 miles WITHOUT A REBUILD on Mobil 1.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mobil 1 saves my 2015 Kia Soul I keep my 4 Kia Soul on for practically 24 hours! I bought my car with 13,000 miles on it! 15 months later I have 21,000 miles on it. I keep my car idle most of the day and often at night. I drive about 300 miles a day. I drive for Lyft & Uber. Plus I use my air conditioner all day in California and at night. I never treated any car I owned like I treat this one. So far this car has been dependable and reliable. I change the oil every 2-3 months. I don't think any of my former cars could take this kind of abuse! Only my tires do I expect to change in about a year! I been using Mobil 1 when it first came out I think around 1977! ( I could be wrong ).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Synthetic Oil Ever since a friend introduced me to extended wear oil products from Mobil 1 I've been loving only having to change my oil once per year. Be sure to check it once a month in case you have to top off if your engine burns a bit of the oil, but otherwise if you're under 15k miles per year on your car like I am, no need to change it 2-3 times a year, once will do. I've been using this oil for most of the 11 years that I've owned my 2003 Suburban (and my VW Jetta, Toyota Corolla, and Hyundai Elantra -- rest of the family). I have over 100k miles in all of my cars (almost 200k in a couple) and they all purr like kittens. Feel confident in using this oil once per year
