Hence the < symbol.
Never mind. Already pointed out.

What? You have no idea what you’re talking about.
it would be good if the oil blenders/ manufactures were more transparent on the base oils they use, along with better informative specs of their product, instead of just guessing what's in it.every one would be more interested in the product sold for their hard-earned vehicle. Reputation of the engine oil manufacture/blender can or cannot mean anything without proper information to the public.
Of course that’s the one of the values of approvals, certifications and licenses. With these you have proven real world performance for their “hard earned” vehicle.
well said, I agree.

Yeah I never had any intention on promoting the brand. Just saying they’re reputable and not some fly by night working out of their garage selling gutter oil
Hi all - just came across this thread as Amazon recommended "JTP" oil to me. I was curious what this actually was and Google lead me to this thread. As it is only a month or so old I think I'll not start fresh.
Wanted to point something out - their website lists this address:
Address
4255 S. Buckley Road 168
Aurora, CO 80013
And well that is a UPS Store...
The images online show Made in USA on the bottles and they do say "Manufactured for "Jamison Transportation".
I had wondered if we were starting to see the first(?) of an influx of Chinese oils on Amazon.
To be fair to this company it may simply be a small business who struck a deal to label oil manufactured by another large provider in the US. Who actually makes the oil is something I could not find.
Anyway just thought I'd share that. I am not particularly interested in this oil just that it seemed odd and made me feel like an STP knockoff from overseas which lead me to look into it some.

Sorry but I'm with many of the other posters. How does one find such a product in a sea of reliable products? especially being a member of a forum dedicated to oil?
Rhetorical question, I'm just impressed, I guess.

I agree - it's not even cheaper than many other very reputable options. Why bother with the risk?
Before the company rep swooped in here with some additional details, I was about to say:

Is it on that list? Maybe I just missed it.

It meets all requirements of Mercedes Benz, BMW, VW and Porsche and costs only $23.48 at Walmart.

I'll likely order this from Walmart (for only $23.48 for 5-qt container and $5.98 for 1-qt container) and use it in my 2015 VW GTI SE. The oil meets or exceeds all manufacturers' requirements. https://www.walmart.com/ip/JTP-5W-4...MIq5_Q45egiQMVNET_AR2DzwexEAQYASABEgJ1E_D_BwE
You can get an oil with actual approvals for about the same or even less.
That’s the thing about approvals, either the oil has them or they don’t.

And yet it's not on the Mercedes approved list:

On the back of the container, it lists MB Approval 229.3, 229.5. I highly doubt that's false advertising. The oil is so new that it has not been placed on that list you posted yet, but I believe it's legitimate. I'll likely use it myself.
