Thoughts on ACDelco Full Synthetic 5W-30, Dexos1-Gen3

[I<3oil]

I just changed the factory fill at 4k on my brand new 2.7

I thought about getting the AC delco oil I have a good connection on that but I really wasn't super excited about it being a 66 product just re bottled also the fact that some AC delco is Mobil and some is 66 just depends on the application

Also the low oil pressure on the dash is seriously concerning and takes some getting used to ....I guess this due to the variable oil pump

If there was a way to bump it up a few pounds I would feel better but im guessing CAFE regs and engine drag are to blame

I ended up with M1 Truck and SUV 5W30 until I can hear the masses shift

It appears the pendulum has swung back towards Mobil for AC Delco. The new D1G3 bottles are Mobil instead of P66.

Hello all, I'll be purchasing a new GM truck soonish with the 2.7L turbo L3B 4-cylinder engine. The manual calls for Dexos1-Gen3 5W-30.

I'll be playing by the rules during the warranty period and took a look at the licensed Dexos1-Gen3 oils. There are plenty of nice oils in there such as Mobil1 Extended Performance and Castrol EDGE but one stuck out to me based on price.

The ACDelco Full Synthetic Dexos1-Gen3 (P/N: 19432351) can be had for $5.50/qt online from GM dealerships. And the ACDelco Gold UPF66R is easily found also.

I do my own oil changes so I sort of need to play by their rules until the warranty is up. What are everyone's thoughts on the ACDelco Full Synthetic oil?

I’d imagine it’s about as good as anything else. I’d use it np.

M1EP seems to check all the boxes. Just a question: does this engine have oil cooling system?

Did you get a 2nd Generation with the 3.6 or will be moving up to the 3rd Generation 2.7 OP?

No clue about Dexos D as I don’t have a vehicle that requires it.

Well I had my heart set on a brand new one but my old Jeep was dying and I had to do something. No new inventory available and I couldn't justify the high cost of the new vehicles. I ended up with a 2021 GMC Canyon AT4 long bed with the 3.6L and 20k miles. Very happy with the purchase.

Saved about $15k vs the new equivalent. Even to this day I've only seen one new Colorado/Canyon in the wild in Mass. and it had Missouri plates...probably close to the factory. Still hard to find at the dealers.

I may trade this one in for a used 2023-2024 Colorado/Canyon in a couple years if they prove themselves worthy.

Gen 3 AC Delco p/n 19432351 is ExxonMobil. The Gen 2 stuff posted in the previous picture was Phillips 66 but the newest iteration has changed producers.
