To all of you Quaker State Peak Performance users,
how do you find this oil ? how about 5w20,
just changed back to QS 500 km ago , so far seeems very smooth
and quiet
decided to try it again after many oil changes ago,since it is always available at Canadian Tire
any other thoughts on this, I just may stick with this for a while

It's a fine oil. I've used it in the past in my wife's Expedition with good results. No reason to spend more. QS is excellent oil.

I've been using 5w-20 QS in my 2005 Grand caravan, I think it's a great buy and a good oil, it's usually cheaper than Pennzoil/Castrol.

It's a very inexpensive oil at $9.27 for 5 quarts. According to Johnny, it's not made from as good of a base stock as Pennzoil, and the additives are a bit cheaper, but I wouldn't hesitate to use it in something that wasn't very hard on oil.

My 4.0L jeep loves it.

Excellent oil.

My uncle's 1993 Explorer just passed 200k and has only used QS 5w-30 and 10w-30 every 6 months (about 6-7k) and Motor craft filters. (pain in the #$%^& to get to)

Still running great. It is having some rust issues right now so it will prob end up 5 years being junked due to the body going away.

I'd use it with no concerns. It is less than $10 still for 5 quarts everyday. Castrol GTX is $13, Vavoline is $11, Halvoline is around $10.50 and Pennzoil is $12.

I have not seen it on sale for it's normal on sale price of 69-89 cents a quart for about a year now. With CSK being bought those deals are gone gone gone.

Take care, bill

The thing about QS is I don't know if I would want to use an oil from a company that puts slick 50 in any of their products...

It wouldn't matter. The current Slick 50 formula doesn't have any harmful substances in it.

I have used QS many times and like it a lot. It is my 2nd choice behind Pennzoil.

-just thought i'd mention that I'v been previously running pennzoil yb 5w20,
and there is and seems to be a slight/noticable difference in how free the engine seems to rev with QS ,could this be real or does QS actually have additives that do reduce friction ?
