Message	I've always been fascinated with the subject of engine lubrication. I study lots of voa's and uoa's. The add pack makeup,base oil makeup as to how it performs in an engine along with used oil wear metals etc. Engine oil technology is changing very fast these days. We now have a few new high mileage synthetics on the market,uber low viscosities (Honda's 0W16),etc. I've looked into the Castrol Edge High Mileage oils and the Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage oils. The thickest Edge is available in 10W40 while the thickest Platinum is only available in 10W30. High mileage oils per voa contain a stronger add pack,have a thicker base oil,and higher tbn. I guess I'm just really curious as to what oil people are running in their car these days with the latest evolutions in engine lubricants,brands and weights?
