That's a very biased report. Notice none of the oil weights are the same?

It's also quite old.

It's also a test that proves nothing for an engine (it's a test used for gear oils!)....and happens to be the same one that AMSoil promotes as the Word of God when it comes to oil.

Like stated earlier as long as they meet or exceed API standards then they will not hurt the car.

of course it won't hurt your car. it's just not the best option by far...
