Subject:Re: Synthetic oil test by AAA
From:Neil N <musomuso@GMAIL.COM>

On my Jetta engine Vanagon, I recently switched to Delo 5-40
synthetic. I have no hard evidence, but my oil consumption at
sustained higher RPMS has decreased noticeably.. Presumably because
less oil is being "burned" via the PCV system.   .....   I think.

At ~ $20 USD at Walmart, I can't argue.

Neil.
