without a license in hand, any "approval" is speculation at best.

Pennzoil jumped the gun on both G5 and SN ratings labels it seems

That does not mean it is officially approved as a gf5 oil......it isnt.More hyped marketing.

I looked at bottles of pennzoil today, all SM rated......no "SN" rated at any store, so I highly doubt that the SN rated oils are out there yet.

Redline oil will clean the sludge and even scrub the metal!

why even do a uoa....you are replenishing it so quick it is useless.

Oh please.......you are killing me!

Are they officially "approved" as such, or do people just "think" they meet them?

While I would never, ever leave ANY oil in for anywhere near 35,000 miles- I would not dump SSO at anywhere near 4000 miles either.....maybe 10,000 being conservative.

Are Gf5 and SN oils out in the marketplace yet? I thought the G5 was not hitting til this fall?

No need for personal attacks....we are just discussing how individual consumers decided the best use of their hard earned dollars.........and we all, as US taxpayers unfortunately own a piece of GM, and want it off our books.

I guess these buyers were smart enough to avoid the higher MPG cars made by the big 3? Certainly they could have bought Cobalts/malibooboos,aveos,fuzions, and all the other higher mpg domestic dreck instead of civics, corollas,sentras and all the other vehicles they did purchase......you guys...

Throw some mobil 1 in 0w-40 grade....it is one of their best oils and will work wonders in your M at reasonable prices.
