    Hey guys. I'm gonna change my oil tomorrow and I have been using high mileage the past couple changes. Would it hurt anything to switch back to some regular mobil1? I'd like to switch back just cause regular oil is cheaper and I feel like it does the same thing. Thanks!

    I don't think it would matter, but I could be wrong. I'd like to see what others have to say.

    Unless you are switching from synthetic to non-synthetic, you will be fine.
