Are There Date codes on the Mobil 1 Containers?

[crazyoildude]

I was just looking at the Mobile 1 5 quart container that was picked up at wal mart and i did not see any date codes anyone know how to tell the oils age?

Same with the Valvoline..

The only ones that i saw date codes on were the pennzoil and quaker state

I'm not the biggest mobil or valvolene fan so im not familiar with the bottles but you would think they would have codes. I'm going to google some pics and see if I see any.

No date code on the Mobil 1 jug I bought last week, but I would not worry about it too much because Walmart's stock turns over fast, so it's more than likely going to be fresh as it gets. Still would like to see a date printed on the jug.

I wouls like to see it also i know pennzoil and quaker state has them and sometimes they are over 5 months old but i guess Mobil 1 sells more but i could e wrong.

I bought some bottles of Mobil 1 AFE from Walmart and there is a printing near the top of each bottle.

They all have this: H 094 14 17:09 "-15"

Not sure what it means though

Date codes < specifications

All of my M1 has lightly inked numbers on the back label including 5 QT jugs. Note however that they are sometimes very light and may be very hard to see.

They all follow the format laid out in this thread: Mobil 1 Date Codes - do I have this right

I'm pretty confident in the date portion, other parts less so.

LOL Thank you 51

I would love to know what they mean...
My son just got back from Wal Mart with 4 5qt. containers of Mobil 1 Advanced full synthetic and they are sitting on my workbench and everyone has the same exact amount of oil in them unlike Pennzoil..

The g18A and other 4 digit code is a mystery, perhaps we will never know
