Default Odd results with Mobil 1

Just changed up to Mobil 1 on my 06 after break-in and I expected the engine to quieten down a little as has happened with all my other cars, but oddly it is a little noisier. Has anyone else noticed this ?
I also used a Napa gold filter, maybe this had an effect??
thanks

Synthetic oil is a little less viscous which may explain why you hear more engine noise.

See the Mobil 1 thread currently active in warranty issues and SOA problems forum.

Post your story there and lend some credence to the arguments.
