Thanks, yes i understand the dual rating labels and appreciate the response. I was more so interested if someone had any feedback or uoa after running an oci in their vehicle.

Wemay: didn’t a member here run a rotella 15w40 for over 16k and UOA it? I’ll see if I can find it

Anyone using it in their gasoline car?

2009 Ford Focus 2.0 Duratec Rotella T6 15W-40 22K

Well, here it is. I put it in on 12/4/2019 and drained it 9/3/2020. 22,000 miles, Averaged 2400 miles per month. I'd say 70 percent interstate driving. Used a Fram XG3600. Specs say use a 3614 but a 3600 fits and clears and gives me double the capacity. Interesting that the 10K rated XG Fram...

Good find!

The price is really tempting and wanted to run it, as oil changes cost a good chunk in a truck that has 3 big oil filters and 11 gallon capacity but I couldn't find anyone who tried it in a big and expensive truck nor did I find any UOAs, so I took one for the team and run Costco's 15w40 in a Volvo VNL780, with D13 engine for 16k miles then did a UOA, results were good and looked like it could be run for a little longer, but I prefer 15k mile intervals,
the engine has a factory bypass filter and two full flow filters

I put in new Volvo filters and did the oil change with this oil right after I took the sample and I'm planing to run it for 15k miles and sample it again.

Just put 3 gallons of Kirkland 15w40 in my Cummins 6.7, I hope I make it through the weekend without blowing up the engine.

It’s up to $31 by me. Anyone recall when it was on sale last? Don’t want to pick some up then have a sale come up.

$35.99 the shipping is included in that price, another $2.78 for tax. $38.79 total

I just ordered some, there is no diesel oil at all in the warehouse near me. I've put some extra filters and stuff in the house, because things are getting scarce.
