Either you used a cheap Group III "synthetic" thats junk or you used old Mobil 1 from before they added the seal additives, or you got the worstest scam where somebody buys Mobil 1, swaps it with some cheapo oil and returns it to the store...

Real Group IV or V synthetics will not leak worse in most cases. I've got an '83 Mercedes with 244kmi on it and it didn't leak any worse with synthetic 5w40 than it did with conventional 15w40. In fact its starting to leak less.
My '96 Dodge Dakota was already leaking a quart in ~800 miles at 120kmi when I switched, now 50kmi later it leaks less than a quart in 3000 miles.
