Let the feud begin!
Guy at AutoZone said the same thing which made me think, do I need to now pay $35/5 qrt jug instead of $25 ???

Only issues I have experienced with Mobil 1 0-40 is start up noise (2-3 seconds). My car has not been started for a couple weeks now so I'm going to be tightening my sittin checks when I do start it.

With my last change in july (I'm due now for change 3k miles) I started a tiny, tiny drip or 2 from the engine/Trans area. Wonder if 0-40 is to thin for 92k mile seals. Car was bone dry until that change.
