  1. Hello everyone,

    this is my first post here now that i own my IS250. i read quite a bit of good experieicne information and i thank you all whom share there thoughts.

    a brieft discription before i ask my questions:

    1. i bought my "new" Honda Accord in 93

    2. after my first 600 miles i chose to change the oil and started to use Mobile 1 Synthetic 5w - 30

    3. every 7,000 miles i changed the oil and used the same brand

    4. i gave the car to my sister after 300,000 miles

    5. the engine sounds and runs beautifully still

    Concern:

    1. because i used Syntheic Oil, the engine gaskets wore out sooner than anticipated

    2. the engine gaskets leak

    3. i am not sure if the "comments" are valid, but it is a concern i have

    4. comments = people i have actually spoken to!

    Questions:

    1. does Mobile 1 Synthetic 5w - 30 oil reduce the normal life span of engine gaskets?

    2. is the price to pay for increasing the lifespan of an engine normal ware and tare?

    Thank you
