Posted By: PAZ Fully Synthetic Oil - 11th Feb 2004 10:35pm
If I want to put fully synthetic oil in my VTR, do I have to flush out all the semi-synthetic first?
Or can I just top up with the fully synthetic?

Cheers

Don't Just Take Our Word For It
Mobil 1 is used in race cars around the world – NASCAR, Formula 1, endurance racers, you name it. Here are some comments from some of the top drivers and race engineers who rely on the protection of Mobil 1.
"We really want to push everything to the limit, and without the best oil, you just can't do it. Mobil 1 has been able to let me do a lot of things that we haven't been able to do in the past."
– Rusty Wallace, NASCAR race driver

"I've been using Mobil almost my entire career. I've had over 50 wins. That's something I'm really proud of and I owe a lot of that to Mobil 1."
– Rusty Wallace, NASCAR race driver

"Formula One is an extremely rigorous test ground for the Mobil product. We're seeing extremely high temperatures, high loads in the engine, and of course the lubricants and fuels that support those processes have to be the very best. And that's exactly what we strive to achieve with our partner, Mobil."
– Ron Dennis, President and CEO, TAG McLaren Group

"To race a car in the 24 Hours of Le Mans means that the driver intends to race that car to the maximum. So every single component of that car has to be designed to withstand that kind of driving. And we also would strongly recommend to every driver of one of our road cars to go on using Mobil 1 and, by this, protecting their investment in the car."
– Herbert Ampferer, Director, Porsche Motorsports

"We like to be with the winners, so we use Mobil 1."
– Domingos Piedade, Managing Director, Mercedes-Benz AMG
