So mineral oil and 15w..... Still good buying all the same :)
Tempting but my 15w 40 semi/min stash is at about 41L level atm 5w 30 full syn, about 26L. 10w40 full syn down to 20?L. time to stocktake full syn's I'm getting low LOL!

Edit: checked stock levels and corrected..
Both were on sale, the Valvoline 10W40 CI-4 semi-synthetic and the Valvoline 15W-40 CH-4 mineral. Different specs, but both 10L of Valvoline diesel oil at much the same price.

I just listed the semi-synthetic as I was in a rush and I thought it might have the most interest given it's higher API spec. But I'm glad you found the other.

That's a very good price, where was it?
Bought it when it's on sale 1 or 2yr ago at United Filter Boronia. They carry a large range of Baldwin oil filters too.

At Autobarn in Australia, 3rd to 24th October 2021

Nulon Hi-Tech Fast Flow 10W40 full synthetic,
API SN/CF, ACEA A3/B4, MB 229.3,
KV100 = 15.07 cSt, SA = 0.9%, contains MolyDTC
$28 for 5L, save $42.

Valvoline XLD Premium 20W50 mineral,
API SL/CF, KV100 = 17.6 cSt, Noack = 7.5%, PP = -36C
$22 for 5L, save $14.

$15 Off the 5L jugs of Mobil 1 oil
0W20, 0W40, 5W30 ESP, 5W50, 5W30
All still too expensive at $70 to $80, but this is probably as good as it gets for M1 in Australia.

Also 25% off Nulon coolants.

Too be honest I've always been interested in the Nulon 10W40 synthetic, but I've never pulled the trigger on it yet.
 
Repco has Shell Helic HX7 10W40 semi-synthetic for half price, $23 for 5L.

Good oil, one of the best I have had in my modified XR6 Turbo. The 5W is a little step up as well. I'm on the full synthetic Nulon Street and Track 15W50 next after the 5W50 Nulon racing oil which is really just too good unless you are doing significant track days.

Good too hear, I ended up getting some of the Nulon 10W40 synthetic, the high tech-fast flowing with Moly, as it was a good price. I'll probably run it in my Nissan X-trail next.

Years ago I used Castrol TXT 10W40 synthetic in my motorcycle and it stayed in grade better than any other oil I tried, going by shift quality. So I'm keen to give another 10W40 synthetic a go.

Nulon also has a new Fusion 10W40 synthetic, but they don't give many details about it, and it has no mention of Moly. I think its an AutoBarn only product.

$28 for the 10w40 Nulon is a bargain - Great oil for the money.
