Group IV's and V's are true pure synthetics.

Please not another oil battle...

I could be wrong.

From what we can tell its based on the Pennzoil Platinum synthetic....

One thing I realized today after the oil change:

The oil temp got up to 110 degree in traffic. Wasn't particularly hot today nor I was driving any faster than normal. Didn't recall the car hit 110 degree before even on a hotter day. But it got down to 100 fairly quickly once the car was moving.

Anyone experience this?

I've read the Bob is the oil guy threads. Don't recall any evidence stating its dino oil based...
