I bought a 2019 Ford F-250 with the 6.2 gasser. Recommend 5w30. Just a few years before it was 5w20. Ford went up a grade for a reason and no turbo on this V8.

Hello Brian, The product you can find instore already meets API SN Plus, but if you are still under warranty and your vehicle specifically calls for the Plus spec, you may want to wait til we've updated the labeling. Best regards, Aly Tuñgol Shell Technical Information

My girlfriend is buying a new Civic hatchback soon with the 1.5L. She will be putting about 25000 plus per year commuting to work,I think Mobil 0w30 at the first oil change and M1 filter. Probably go to 10 percent on the oil life monitor and change. I was concerned about the higher viscosity...

Hi guys I have a 2013 Ford F250 with a 6.7 diesel. 60,000 miles I have used 10w30,5w40,15w40 and even 10w40 for oil choices. I have read here and on other forums about this noise after a oil changes and I also get the typewriter noise for about the first 500 miles or so. It doesn't bother me it...

Yes all t5. Thx guys!

My buddy picked up some t5 10w40 at tractor supply on close out because they are changing to the 15w40. He only got 2 gal. Can he mix it with t5 10w30? 9qt. 10w30 and 4qt. 10w40 for his diesel truck? Or use it for chainsaw oil it was 9.99 a gallon.

Ok just did the oil and filter change. 13 quarts of Delo XLE 10w30. I will probably go to 25% left on the OLM I will sample and post the results. Thanks guys!!!
