Yup, all three former S2K, now Super Tech synthetics are from the same place... they've rung identical on the 'olfactory' sensors since the SL formula! Like I say, S-K website also shows specifically those three synthetic grades under 'Performance Plus ZRS Synthetic' and 'America's Choice Synthetic'

The 5w30 and 10w30 are also listed on the API site, but on different pages


very nice find! Thanks for the link.

Wonder where they get their synthetic base-stock (petro canada or esso), or whether they make it themselves in canada.

Jim,

They make it themselves by re-refining used oil...all their oils are made that way.

There was/is a used oil analysis of this stuff on a 4 cylinder ranger and the used oil analysis was outstanding. Wal-Mart Canada's oil's have been rebranded from Tech2000 to SuperTech just like the USA has been for a while, but the oils are from completely different sources. All Super Tech oils in Canada are made in Canada by S-K. While Tech2000/Super Tech (Canada) synthetic has been a favourite of mine, did you also see PP was on sale for $19.95/4.4L. I got a jug of PP instead yesterday, which I strongly suspect is the near exact same formula as Motomaster Formula 1 synthetic oil because they smell exactly the same and theyre both made by Shell.

i dont think Motomaster Formula 1 and PP in Canada are made by same one. dont know about Super Tech 0w30 but the PP sold in Walmart here are made in USA, it's printed on label.

Guys, I think this is a Canada only offering.

I have spotted this oil in Ontario, but never in New York..
