Up to $15 off Mobil 1, ends October 31, 2016
https://mobiloil.com/en/promotion/mo...nd-mobil-super
Looks like the $15 only applies if you buy quarts and a filter. It's a $12 mail-in rebate for 5 (or more) quarts. You'll have to read the participating retailers list. |

And again, for all who don't know, Mobil1 has lost BMW's long life certification. Check the label.

"Offer valid until Oct. 31, 2016. Multiquart jugs and single quart bottles both valid. Certain restrictions apply."
I need some M1 Turbo Diesel Truck for my Jetta so this will work out well and Meijer already sells it for a low $26/gallon. |

I like that you can fill all of this out and submit online, plus track it online as well. They are a little slower than they used to be, but I've gotten the rebate every time.

If Mobil 1 is still certified by other manufacturers I wouldn't waste time giving this so called issue any thought. YMMV. Maybe my thought process is wrong, and you believe if it is, please share your thought process so I can be convinced otherwise.

My thought (or maybe my worry) is that the loss of the BMW certification has some other causation. Could it be that some number of BMW owners running Mobil1 synthetic oil have experienced premature engine wear or failure resulting in extra costs to BMW to cover damages, and consequent loss of sales due to consumers losing faith in the reliability of BMW automobiles? I think we can agree on one thing. There is a plausible reason for Mobil's loss of BMW's certification. We just don't know what that reason is. Peace

I don't think there are thousands of BMW DIYers loyal to Mobil 1. I don't think BMW cares much about us. Their target demographic is the new car lessee, a new car every two years, with no maintenance worries. As for us - we are the garbage that wears last years style. Ask BMW or any manufacturer for an out of warranty repair. Their first question - are you the original owner? If no, go pound sand (most of the time). If Mobil 1 still has the certification of the independent testing institutes, or other manufacturers, etc. It probably is the same stuff in the bottle. I wouldn't worry.
