New Ion syn oil?
Maybe you guys can help.
My wife took her new 06 Saturn Ion 3 - 4,000 miles to a quick lube place and asked for good oil as the car was new and this was its 1st oil change. They put in QS Full syn oil (cost 2x as much) and changed the filter. Is this a problem so early in the cars life? Thanks. |

No, it is not a problem. Some cars come from the factory with Mobil1 synthetic oil. Corvettes being one of them. Paul |

The fact that syn was put in. I've read heard some people say that there needs to be a longer break-in period with dino prior to switching to syn. |

Best time to put in Mobil1 is as soon as you drive it off the dealers's lot.
Cars don't use break in oil like they did in the jurassic era. Engines have much tighter tolerances than they did then.
