It has been reported by many people driving various vehicles that when they changed their oil and used Shell Rotella Synthetic 5W40 that the smell of oil was real noticeable. Some equate it to the smell of rotten eggs. Also the smell will be noticeable after shut down a short distance from the vehicle.
If this happens to you or anyone that you know, contact the Shell Customer Service. They had a bad batch of oil and will instruct you to change it immediately and they will give you instructions on how to obtain payment for that service.
The Batch numbers are #SHA038-0717, 1814, 4362 and 6382. If you threw away your container and cannot match up the numbers, call them anyhow. Personally, I think this is a very stand-up Company for handling this situation in the manner that they are doing.
You will notice the smell immediately after operation. If you do not have any smell do not worry. Your oil is fine and enjoy the use of your vehicle.
