Hang on to that bottle for "evidence" though and make sure you show it to the service manager after you get the proper mobil-1 full syn in there.

If you had done it, it would have voided the warranty, assuming they could prove it.

Don't worry it won't kill the car but I would change over to full synthetic 10w30 and get a refund.
