did you use it for your vw's and if you did for how many miles?
I did in Tiguan. 5k OCI. Didn’t do UOA. Smooth running.
Will change in Atlas in 500mls. Probably will do UOA after 5k.
i am very curious about that UOA !
If I do this road trip I supposed to do soon, it will be fast coming.
this guy here, at of this video 15.30 and on, an expert as claims to be, he finds these oils INTERESTING
, on parer .. lets wait the results from his boxster to tell us how they went with it in.whats interesting is that since i sign up and have been learning things here ,i always heard the words ,API ,ILSAC as the absolute rule of choosing an oil or ACEA in my case. i guess these organisations are doubtable sometimes.
Can confirm PPE 5w40 is always a good bet, even QS Euro 5w40, especially when on sale at Cambodian Tire
How did we ever survive on old and lousy
Canadian Tire yes, Walmart still had SN.
Did you see this on the shelf or just in Walmart's website picture?
Live and in person on the shelf.
I’ll take a gander at CT he ones in my area still have the SN version.
Thanks for the post.
M1 0W-40 was just on sale last week at Crappy Tire for $35ish bucks. Probably moved out some old stock. I think CT moves way more oil in Canada than Walmart. It will probably be on sale again in the next month at CT after the cycle of weekly Castrol--->Pennzoil--->Mobil 1.
Found the oil. It was on sale at Walmart here in the GTA. The big jugs are SP rated however, the smaller bottles that were on the shelf were not. . .Turned out to be a $3 difference but, still, money is money.
It was this or Pennzoil 5w40 Euro, which in itself is a good oil, however I will stick to the M1 flavor for now as this is a break in oil change.

Did you check the code on the back?
quoting 2 of his related answers to subscribers about his video:
When You Shouldn't Use MOBIL1 0W-40 - A Certified Lubrication Specialist Reveals A Hidden Weakness!
here is the video:as stated here many times from eddyw and others M1 fs 0-40 is not ideal for DI engines because of strong calcium.
my question is when he says smaller engines and LSPI what does he mean? bcs. in US a small size engine could be over 2000cc since you guys run usually bigger engines in your cars. so is it below 2000cc a small engine according to euro sizes or over 2000cc according to us sizes?
