Molybdenum is great stuff. There's even some in my daily multivitamin supplement. But same way it sticks to metal parts preventing cold-startup wear it also sticks to little metal particles floating around in your oil which makes them sink to the bottom of the pan and clogs up your oil filter faster. That's why you don't see it in extended service interval oils. Personally I only add it when I'm down about half a quart instead of using it every oil change. The straight stuff is Liqui Moly part # 2009 or LM2009 at NAPA.

Oh, im Sorry ... my goal is to share experience

Everyone is welcome to thier own decisions of course... I ruined an engine in my youth due to lack of proper maintenance, so for 25+ years i have paid attention. My decision is to use the oils I have listed.

My contribution here is simply pointing out my results across many automobiles and several AMG's.
To open up an engine and see clear oilly surfaces throughout..to never see glitter, ...to scope cylinders between plug changes and see pristine walls is something I decided to share... the results are from using the oils I mentioned.

as is always...your mileage may vary

hope my goal doesn't offend, and beg you not to text angry because these happen to work for me

What are your goals running this oil? Have you done any lab work to ascertain problematic wear rates, or...?[/QUOTE]

Thanks for this. I see it's not listed on their website but other forums agree.

Dont do 10W40. The highest recommended is 5W40 because of the oil line thickness
