Default Changing from Mobil 1 to Pennzoil Full Syntec

hi all,
I have a 96 A4 Quattro.
I currently use Mobil 1 oil (fully syntec) and planning to switch to Pennzoil Platinum Fully Syntethic, since they are having a good deal at Schuck's.
Do you think it gonna be ok for my car?

thanks

PP is a good oil, and an excellent oil at the price. You'll be fine, in fact, I'd keep using the PP instead of mobil so long as the price is so low.

I stocked up on 24 quarts of Q torque Power 10w30 and 6 quarts PP 10w30 so my next 5 oil changes are spoken for

Yes, Pennzoil is good too. Mobil 1 is not the only quality synthetic oil on the market!

Mobil one is very overpriced for what it is... a group 3 synthetic base stock (not a TRUE synthetic).
