But I’ve been wondering about whether it’s still useful for a modern engine. And I’m wondering if they’ve kept the same formula or updated it. I’ve got a 2005 Crossfire Limited Roadster with 70,000 miles. I’m still using just the European blend of Mobil1 0W-40.
My thoughts too.
I think that if cars needed STPs ingredients then Mobil and other makers would add it at their refineries, all these additives are mostly ways to make money for their makers. The results to the user are none except to lighten their wallets.
