Autozone is the closest place from me that recycles. I just walk to the back on my own and dump it in their drum. Nothing to sign, they don’t bat an eye.

Thanks. I was going off a list on another thread that has all the brands that make a 508/509 spec oil. Mobile, pennzoil, Valvoline, Castrol all make one but you can’t find any of them on a store shelf. Can’t even find them on their websites except for mobile.

Where do I find the engine code? There’s a sticker under the hood that says to use VW 508/509 spec oil. It’s a 2020 Passat.

Yes. 2020 Passat. I was going off a spreadsheet someone posted elsewhere showing all the brands that offer vw508 spec oil.

I just dumped some Valvoline Durablend 5w-30 in my lawnmower engine. The oil is at least 13 years old.

Thx for the replies. I’ll probably just stick with 30w like he manual says.

I own the following wen pressure washer Wen 2800 power washer The manual gives me a chart for help determining what viscosity oil to choose and seems to recommend 30w oil for a starting temp of 40 degrees F or higher but a sticker on the machine next to the dip stick says to use 10W30 motor oil...
