Rottela T 5W40

[KW]

Is Rottela T 5W40 still availible? Today a checked the ussual places for it, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Auto Zone, and Advance Auto and found nothing. Everyone seemed to have the 15W40 but none of the 5W40 that my bikes like.

The Wal Mart in central Cali had a full shelf of the gallon jugs.

All the major auto parts store chains in So. Cal. tend to carry 15w-40 diesel oils, and only that weight, so you're in good company. You might try a NAPA or other auto parts store which also carries some amount of heavy (big rig) truck parts. They often have a wider selection of diesel lubes.

Walmart in Racine, WI had a full shelf too. Plus, if M1 SUV is coming soon, then why should we worry?

I haven't tried it on Rotella 5W40, but typically if any Wal-Mart carries an item, the other ones can order it. So, you might consider that option. When the Rotella 5W40 is avalible for ~$12/ gallon, even if/when Delvac 1 is readily avalible, it is still a pretty good deal.

For about a year now it's been reported that this oil will soon be formulated to meet CI-4 . Anyone seen a CI-4 batch yet ?

Datasheet says it meets CI-4 now. I'll check the gallons I bought a month or so ago when I get home... http://www.shell-lubricants.com/products/pdf/RotellaTSynthetic.pdf
