Just bought a bottle on rollback with $3 Walmart cash as well. For $22/5 that’s not too bad.
25k oil is just like "lifetime tranission fluid".
If your order button the Walmart and pick it up at the store, it’s another $3 off, plus you get $4 Walmart cash. Makes it equivalent to $21.97.
Mobil 1 Advanced Clean is a 20,000 mile oil, if you dare.
Check the app. A few days ago they had $4 Walmart cash (edit: I see the Walmart wash was mentioned above) to go along with the $3 rollback. There’s also a $10/5qt rebate if you feel like submitting it.
There have been 1,000s of testimonials on multiple auto forums/vlogs from people who had some sort of oil consumption (from 1.5-5.0 quarts/5K miles); did the minimum 4 OCIs with Valvoline Restore and Protect and substantially reduced/eliminated oil consumption.
It's been 2+ years since Valvoline Restore and Protect came out. There was evidence of varnish removal, carbon removal, quieter engine operation, increased fuel economy, better engine response, etc almost immediately.
Now that Mobil 1 Advanced Clean has been out almost 6 months, I'm waiting to hear/read/see similar results for what "advanced clean" is supposed to do.
Just stating that it does contain PAO. You never mentioned viscosity. Wouldn't want people be misinformed about the oil.
Most users focus on the Valvoline Restore and Protect cleaning ability but the wear protection is quite good .

Nobody was going to pay Advanced prices - Walmart barely got started and the strait pandemic hit - low supply …

When Clean was mean 
How much was Advanced MSRP?
Low-mid $30s (5 qts) is the range for Valvoline Restore and Protect & people are buying it.
Mobil 1 Advanced Clean is also rated for 20K miles, which isn't far off Mobil 1 Extended Performance (25K) & its price.
Mobil 1 Advanced Clean was launched in Sept/Oct 2025.
If you're a global company doing a new product launch, manufacturing/processing would have started at least 3-6 months earlier for inventory build up so SKUs can hit the shelves within weeks.
The strait situation didn't start until March 2026.
That's 4 months of potential observations that I haven't heard/read/seen.
Maybe Mobil 1 Advanced Clean doesn't work as effectively as they claim, or as fast as Valvoline Restore and Protect does?
I did read that some of Mobil 1 Advanced Clean advertisements had to be pulled for false claims.

About $10 more and far less stores - like 45 miles from me and I’d pass four Walmarts on that trip …
I went to two Walmarts about 3 weeks ago - none …
Ordered two delivered …
That’s some good, clean fun for the entire family!
I would like to find someone who changes their Royal Purple at 3K miles. I'd help them drain it, then I'd put it in one of my cars.
Not sure it you would want it after 3k.. may not be purple anymore
Mobil 1 Advanced Clean has arrived at my local Walmart. The five quart jug is priced $1 beneath Mobil 1 Extended Performance and $4 beneath Valvoline Restore and Protect. This is a Rollback price.

Mostly being facetious : ) But unless the owner is stop and go plus a lot of idling, changing high-end synthetic at 3,000 miles is a waste IMO.
