Valvoline rolls out dexosD 0w20

[MurkyAsparagus]

Valvoline has officially rolled out dexosD 0w20 for sale. I posted a few months ago about this new product from Valvoline and support was unsure of release date for purchase. It looks to be well priced in bay box form. DexosD doesn’t have many oils in comparison to dexos2 and dexos1 Gen3, which makes logical sense due to demand. However, it’s still good to see more and more competition. We are also seeing more approved 5w30s.

Give me the 5w-30 if I had one of these.
Thanks for giving a heads up.

Or you could get ACEA C2 5W30 or ACEA C5/C6 0W20, both with a lower Noack limit of 13%

I ran HPL 5w30 Dexos D when I had the 3.0L and the 5w30 significantly reduced oil consumption. However, so much oil gets past the PCV system that they will always use oil until GM designs a better system to separate the oil vapor.
