[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 11399939, member: 11681"] Most reputable oil companies that make automotive synthetic oils will not be using just esters(even the one's that claim they are ester oils :rollseyes) for automotive use since most of today's fuels contain 10% ethanol in most locations and alcohol attracts moisture. Even without the Eth gas, combustion produces moisture anyway and an ester only oil plus water would eventually be a problem. I can't speak for other oil companies but we use a proprietary blend of Group IV and Group V base oils. There are advantages and disadvantages to both types so a special combination of both actually works best. If you are lubing turbines esters rock. [/QUOTE]
