Thanks for the number. This go around and next I'm definitely going with the PP 0W-20PP 0W-20 is about 8%. PQIA tested it a while back. Definitevely one of the best after Mobil 1.

What's a fake synthetic?fake synthetics
HPL can be on your doorstep within 2 days. That’s “local” availability as far as I’m concerned. If you can’t deal with a 2-day lead time on oil changes, you’re doing preventive maintenance wrong. Sorry, not sorry.Lol, I like me some Mobil 1 but these are the choices I have based on local availability for me.
Don’t feed the troll. There’s no objective data at the daily driver level to substantiate that claim; it’s fake news, if you will.What's a fake synthetic?
Anything that's not Redline broseph! LOLWhat's a fake synthetic?
Red Line is awesome, unless you understand that they don't use Metallocene PAO or Alkylated Naphthalene in their formulations. Red Line stubbornly places all their faith in Polyolester and PAO. What you're left with is an expensive motor oil that behaves more or less like an off the shelf oil, except for the poor TBN retention. Of course, I could be completely wrong, so please feel free to correct me.Anything that's not Redline broseph! LOL![]()

Omigerd fake news! Also, a sto- lun E leck shun!Don’t feed the troll. There’s no objective data at the daily driver level to substantiate that claim; it’s fake news, if you will.
Even some @High Performance Lubricants blends use “fake synthetics” yet still outperform comparable shelf-stock oils.
Trust falls?
No.Trust falls?![]()
Once I use up my stash of Valvoline EP synthetic oils - I am switching over to vanilla M1 5W30 as it checks just about all of the important boxes in an oil for me plus is less expensive than Valvoline EP synthetic oil making the M1 a no brainer selection.Order online at Walmart or Amazon. The new Triple Action+ formulation is awesome. Mobil really spent some serios coin & time developing and testing this. I'm running it in my wife's Jeep GC WK2.
