My 2019 Arteon has an under hood sticker specifying both 504 and 0w-30. I use the VW branded oil from FCP Euro which is the same as Mobil 1 ESP, so lifetime oil changes.

Getting parts from the same warehouse is much cheaper than having multiple warehouses, but adding more items from the same one still can increase the shipping cost.

I have some of these exact ones from work that I use at home. Really like them for occasional use

Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass. PPG was a competitor. LOF had 100% of GM glass business from the 30's up until the early 60's. After that we had only 50% Made them for both the Coupe and Convertible Reatta for the GM Craft Center Assembly Plant in Lansing.

I worked at the manufacturing plant that made them for General Motors

Car gets driven seldom enough that I only change it once a year. $10 per quart isn't all that bad

I just rebuilt the engine on my Capri and am going to use one of the Gibbs Driven oils for street cars. They have a mineral based 10w-40 with zinc that looks good.

The other factor is that FCP Euro has free shipping on orders over $49 and Rock Auto seems to charge top price for shipping some items. I agree for some items it wouldn't make sense, but for things like brakes, wipers, spark plugs, oil, air and cabin filters it does.

That can happen. While prices generally go up and not down, the converse is also true. If a price goes down, you get credit for the original (higher) price. I had that happen before. I just sent back a pair of front brake rotors. Paid $56 each a few years ago and they are now $63 ea. Cost me...

I keep my Volkswagens 12 plus years, so it's a no brainer for me to buy from them. I return everything I can including oil, filters, brakes, spark plugs etc. Just shipped back a pair of brake rotors this week. Got a $110 credit and cost me $26 to ship back.

You posted a list of GL4 oils and I just reminded you of one readily available that you did not have on there. I specifically wanted a mineral based GL-4 oil and thought others with older vehicles may need that as well. I doubt a 50 year Ford, that sold over a million, uses a unique oil that is...

I use this one on my 50 year old Capri CRC Sta-Lube API/GL-4 Multi-Purpose Gear Oil 85W90 https://www.amazon.com/CRC-Sta-Lube-SL24239-Multi-Purpose-Hypoid/dp/B000M8RYMC/ref=sr_1_1?crid=OZE6C3C5U7JR&keywords=sta+lube+gl-4+85w90+gear+oil+-+1+qt&qid=1689368813&sprefix=sta+luble%2Caps%2C115&sr=8-1

Jegs has one flat fee for shipping and handling regardless of what is ordered, if you are under the free shipping threshold. Same as Summit. If you only need one smaller item it does kind of suck.

I worked for a major OE glass manufacturer for nearly 20 years and no one in the industry ever referred to it that way. The correct term is Backlite. The company I worked for has been supplying glass for cars for over 100 years. Safelite is one of the very few glass suppliers that does not...

Zimmermann coated rotors and Akebono Euro pads

I tried the overseas sources I am familiar with and didn't find it. Sounds like your fabrication project is working.

Fiesta Mk 3 were quite popular in the UK. Lots of aftermarket support there. A couple other good UK sources are Tickover and Burton Power. I have used both for my 70s Capri

I assume this is for a Fiesta. Have you tried Motomobil in Germany? Very reputable vendor for old and obsolete Ford parts. I have bought from them multiple times. If the page comes up in German, you can change to English as well as changing the currency on the upper right. www.motomobil.de
