Sweet thank you sir

 

While were on it, is all Rotella synthetic?

I've been leery about switching to synthetic before fixing my leaks, for fear of making them worse.

 

No not all rotella is synthetic i believe the silver and blue bottles are. But the white bottles are conventional

 

They also offer a blend. Here's info on their products.

I just did a oil/filter change. First time with Rotella. Made it from my garage to the house with no problem.

 

Thanks.

 

Your quite welcome.

 

Run T6 in my XJ and my Scooby. Both love it!

 

One word of warning. This oil is designed for Diesel engine use. While it doesn't say so on the Shell website, it may contain compounds that will shorten the life of the catalytic converter when burned.

 

It's certified by the API at "SM" for use in gasoline engines, which supercedes the original factory specifications. It's fine. Just like every single oil that everybody was running prior to 2010. No need for FUD here please.

 

Am I missing something? Website doesnt show the deal and local Napa doesnt seem to know about it either.

 

My wife just bought another gal today at $19.99. We were told it was a nationwide deal.

Which NAPA did you check at? I just checked online at a NAPA store in Detroit. Genuine Parts Co. in Garden City shows $19.99. Search the stores on the link below for one near you. I would guess that even the stores that say they don't know about the $19.99 price would see it when they ranging your sale up.

youre right. The Garden City location shows the deal but the two stores close to me still show regular prices. Wonder if they will match it? Maybe worth the drive though.

 

I change mine every 5,000k with a new wix filter, how long would anyone recommend?

 

That's fine. If you want to run longer get a used oil analysis to make sure you aren't diluting with fuel. Blackstone Labs can give you a pretty good picture.

 

Haha I just heard an ad on the radio for Rotella. That's a new one
