One of the highest quality and technologically advanced oils today is the lubricant for the Mobil 1 5W30 motor. The liquid belongs to synthetic materials, the production of which is carried out using high-quality base oils, due to which the products have excellent characteristics and have a positive effect on the operation and safety of the power plant.

Product developers are engineers and researchers of the American company ExxonMobil. The use of innovative technologies and the latest developments were noticed by the world's leading automotive companies, they highly appreciated the merits of the product and confirmed its compliance with the stringent requirements of European standards.

Using Mobil 1 engine oil, the owner of the power unit receives full care for his property. The synthetic mixture of components and additives included in Mobil oil keeps all engine parts and assemblies spotlessly clean, prevents their wear and premature failure.

It should be noted the excellent environmental performance that Mobil 1 5W 30 synthetics correspond to, thanks to its use, the toxicity of exhaust gases of both diesel and gasoline engines is significantly reduced.

Lubrication Features

One of the main features of Mobil 5W30 oil is the introduction of special ExxonMobil patented mixtures into its composition, consisting of high-tech elements that allow the fluid to interact well with soot particles. Starting in 2011, all modern diesel passenger car engines must be equipped with diesel soot filters without fail.

This condition allows the units to comply with Euro 5 standards, since the filter purifies exhaust gases by 99%. However, a large amount of oils adversely affect the filter element and disable it. Mobile 5W30 avoids this, which confirms its high status as a quality oil.

At the same time, the use of a unique additive package on gasoline power plants has a positive effect on the exhaust gas neutralizers installed in the units. Mechanisms do not fail and do not require expensive replacement, they qualitatively purify exhaust gases from harmful impurities and save fuel.

The composition of the lubricant and additive package is as follows:

• Composition of low ash content;
• Minimum sulfur and phosphorus content;
• Substances of active cleaning;
• Elements that prevent oxidation;
• Components resistant to high temperatures.

The first, key indicator, which plays one of the most important roles in the composition of the working fluid, belongs to a low-ash composition, which helps to reduce the deposition of harmful elements in diesel filters.

Harmful deposits, sludge and drying oil neutralize active cleaning substances, which helps to increase the life of the motor. To maintain the performance of the lubricant for as long as possible, elements that are neutral to oxygen and do not allow it to enter into the oxidation process help. And thermal elements resist the waste of liquid.

The viscosity class SAE 5W 30 indicates that the product is a multigrade oil, a more detailed interpretation of the SAE characteristics indicates the following:

1. Engine oil, with a synthetic base, can be used at any time of the year;
2. Extreme temperature of use in a cold season: -35 °C. To decipher the SAE classification, it is necessary to subtract the first digit before the letter “W” from 40 (“winter” - winter). For example, for oils with an SAE 0W30 index, the temperature will correspond to -40 ° C;
3. Maximum operating temperature: +30°С. Exceeding the minimum and maximum temperatures can cause the oil to lose its performance.

Drivers' opinions

Ivan Pototsky, service foreman, St. Petersburg

Someone who, and my guys understand oils. We often tell clients what to fill in the engine so that the car can drive for another five years without a major overhaul. After all, for a motor, lubrication is like blood for a person. The cleaner it is, the better it is, the longer the body will last. In this regard, we most appreciate Mobil Super 3000 XE 5W 30 engine oil. We service our cars only with this product. Cars start like clockwork in any frost and work great in the heat. No soot, the internal cavities of the engine are clean, like a baby's. Toxicity testing on special equipment shows that exhaust toxicity is two times lower than normal. Thank you Mobile!

Semyon Portyanoy, driver, Tula

When I come back from flights, we like to drive around our native places in our car with the whole family. We traveled around the Moscow region, got to the Kola Peninsula. We visited Finland in our own car. Mobil Super 3000 X1 5W lubrication accompanies us everywhere. This is truly a superfood, indispensable on the road for any car. With it, the engine never clogs, the exhaust is clean, it runs silently, without jerks and interruptions. I am glad that such a valuable Mobil1 X1 lubricant with unique performance properties exists. We thank the manufacturers MOBILE!!!

Rasul Khubiev, fleet owner, Moscow

I have my own car park with different car models. In the past, mechanics ordered different types of oils for periodic changes. Once I took a closer look at my cars - some always have a clean engine, they work silently, they don’t smoke from the exhaust pipe, while others have the opposite. It turned out that the first mechanics fill in Mobil ESP Formula 5W30 motor oils, and the others - different oils. I ordered from now on to use only Mobile. Now all my cars are on top. Toxicity is below the norm, engine wear is minimal, there is no carbon deposits, cars are always serviceable. All thanks to Mobil1 EP!

I have been driving for many years now. I recently took my beauty to a car service. Upon receipt, I noticed that I did not hear the sound of the motor. The master grinned slyly, saying that I am testing Mobil Super 3000 XE 5W 30 oil. Then you will tell me how it is in operation. I really liked it. The car does not drive, but floats. The engine runs very quietly, dynamics and throttle response have improved significantly. Surprisingly, there is no smell from the muffler pipe, and just steam comes out from there. So Mobile, so well done!

The effective operation of motor fluid largely depends on its technical qualities and composition. Our compatriots are offered a large selection of lubricants at any price and with different properties. Below we will talk about the characteristics, as well as what disadvantages a motorist may encounter by purchasing this product.

How does 5W30 stand for?

In accordance with the description of official standards, the 5W30 class is assigned to a motor fluid that has an SAE specification. The symbol W means the possibility of using lubricants in the cold season, that is, Mobil 5W30 oil can be used at low temperatures in winter. The number in front of this symbol indicates the degree of frost resistance of the lubricant. The designation 5W indicates that the oil can be used at a minimum air temperature of -30°C.

The second digit after the W symbol means the softness of the liquid at the operating temperature of the internal combustion engine, which is about 100 degrees. The higher this figure, the greater the heat resistance of the substance.

Manufacturer and quality

Motor lubricants are manufactured by Exxon. The main brand capacities are concentrated in the United States, but there are processing plants in Europe and Turkey. The corporation's products that officially enter the CIS countries are manufactured in Turkey and Finland. The fluids are manufactured using base oils sourced from a facility located in Gravenchon, France. This plant is considered the largest in Europe. It also manufactures products imported into countries in Western Europe.

The procedure for testing Mobil 1 oil by friction is described in a video filmed by the user Piotr Tester.

Representatives of the company report that today the number of unofficial deliveries to Europe from the United States has increased. This is due to the fact that certain types of the 5W30 energy-saving line are not produced in the EU. The same goes for some brands of mineral-based fluids. This oil is not bottled in Ukraine and Russia.

Analogues

To save money, you can buy a similar liquid. For example, it is allowed to replace Mobile oil with Total Quartz, Mannol, ZIC, Elf. If you have used Mobil, then before changing the lubricant, you should thoroughly clean the engine by flushing it.

How to distinguish a fake?

1. The unscrewing scheme is indicated on the original plugs 2. Fake oils have an arrow under the barcode.

The list of differences with which you can determine whether the original is in front of you or a fake:

1. If an incomplete address of the manufacturer is indicated on the canister label, then this is a fake. According to some experts, even when the full details of the manufacturer are marked on the bottle, this cannot be a confirmation of the high quality of the product.
2. Original oils never reach the market in transparent canisters. The manufacturer produces products only in opaque plastic.
3. On packages of original oils, labels are always glued with high quality. The paper fits snugly against the walls of the canister, and if air bubbles are visible under it, then you have a fake. Often, experts advise choosing a product in a container that does not have labels, and all information is indicated on the surface of the container. The oils discussed in this article are not produced in such bottles, but some of the information is still noted on the canister itself.
4. Real liquids always have a hologram. It is qualitatively fixed on the container. The original container of Mobil 1 oil is sealed, and a control sticker is located on its cork. If, after unscrewing the cover, the shear ring broke, then this is a fake.
5. The container into which the oil is poured must not be damaged or worn.

The cost of oils

The average cost of a four-liter package of Mobil 5W30, regardless of the brand of liquid, varies between 2200-2600 rubles.
