" Don't you think Chevy gets a kickback by recommending Mobil 1? "
I always wondered what the connection was between Chevy/Corvette and Mobil 1. Even the engine oil fill cap specifies the use of Mobil 1. The Owner's Manual specifies the use of Mobil 1 with the added clause: " Your vehicle's engine requires a special oil meeting GM Standard GM4718M " along with: " NOTICE: If you use oils that don't have the GM4718M Standard designation, you can cause engine damage not covered by your warranty "
Have never checked other synthetic oils, might Mobil1 be the only oil that meets the GM4718M standard and Mobil/GM arrived at the standard together ?
