New Havoline Motor Oil Labeling

[chemman]

I was just at the Havoline motor oil website (https://www.chevronlubricants.com/en_us/home/products/by_brand/havoline.html) and noticed that there is new labeling for their bottles and Smart Change 6 quart packs. They have dropped the Deposit Shield wording and logo from the front label, and the labels have a new look.

I also noticed that according to the Product Data Sheets, they are no longer selling "conventional" 5w20 and 5w30 motor oils. If one wants a 5w20 or 5w30 motor oil from Havoline, those weights are available in their Synthetic Blend line.

One thing is certain, because of the changes to the labels, I don't think people will have to worry if they are getting the "old" GF-5 oils when they next purchase Havoline motor oils.

For me, it means that the next time I have to purchase 5w30 for any of my vehicles, it will be the Havoline Pro-DS full synthetic (I have a stash of 82 quarts of Havoline 5w30 conventional Deposit Shield to go through first).

They also have several updated Product Data Sheets for these products.

Great find man ^^^^^^^^^

And.. .

Finally....

Havoline Pro DS high mileage full synthetic !!

About time Chevron/Havoline...

Awesome... I'm going to buy it when I see it. This is long overdue...

I am liking the new qt container looks... Very nice look in my opinion.

Doesn’t look like they will offer the ProDS high mileage in the smart change box.

The bottle labeling look kind of retro in a way.

I use the synthetic 5w30 and had it tested by Blackstone when I first got my used Subaru. The results came back great! I don't know how to import the test results though, I see there is a forum for that but I can't seem to get it to import there to post.
This is a great oil and super cheap too! Last time I bought it, it was marked down to $17.87 for 6 quarts of good synthetic oil!

Yes I hear you I lost a years sleep over that just last week.

Or the DS in PRO-DS is (drum roll please) … In personal recreation oil

On second look, the asphalt background is a little jarring and the retro scheme is a little too “Steelers” for me. Definitely reminds me of the old Havoline Sponsored racecars.

I do wish they offered the Full Synthetic High Mileage in the smart change box. I REALLY like the smart change box.

Very retro like PimTac wrote. I like it.

Still has deposit shield and no Dexos certificate on 5w20. All test were done with 0w20 looks like. If I were to run it again it be in 0w20 instead of 5w20.

Did you notice the rebates for various Chevron products on their promotions page while checking out the new look?

Is that new, I didn't think they had a Full syn High Mileage only High Mileage Syn Blend

Not new, but previously they didn’t offer a full syn high mileage at all.

now they do, just not in the smart change box.
