API SN came out last October, and while there is still a lot of SM oil stock to go through, for most high-volume products, the shelves are now mostly full of SN-spec oil.
Except it seems, for Mobil 1 oils in Canada.
Mobil 1 is a decent seller up here, and most stores have enough turn-around that we should have jugs of M1 SN-spec oil by now. But i've been to many Canadian Tire's and Wal-Marts up here (our volume movers by far), and have not yet seen 1 bottle of SN-spec Mobil 1, it's all SM. Even the brand-new AFE 0W-20 they now stock is all API SM.
Most of the jugs even have the new Mobil 1 labels that were brough out just a bit before SN, but they still are all SM. Go to the Mobil in Canada website, all the spec sheets are for Mobil 1 SM products, while the ones in the US are mostly all SN.
Will Canada not be getting SN-spec Mobil 1? I'm serious - it should have showed up by now, someone should have run out of SM-spec M1, and be stocking the new SN.....but there is none, and i've been to enough stores that I should have seen some....
