Kendall Diesel Oils

[CarbonSteel]

Member BigD1 recently posted a new source for Kendall oil and I noticed they had a diesel oil that I had not seen before--I have Kendall Super-DXA in my PSD now. I reached out to Kendall on Saturday and they responded this morning. Thought you guys may be interested (note text in blue):

Hello 2015_PSD,

Thank you for contacting Phillips 66 Lubricants, and for your interest in our products.

Kendall, GT-1® Diesel Motor Oil with Liquid Titanium®
Kendall, Super-D XA® with Liquid Titanium®
Family of Brands, Guardol ECT® Diesel Engine Oil with Liquid Titanium®

There is no difference in the formulation of all three of these products, you may see very minor differences on the technical data sheets as the values reported on these documents are typical values and will vary slightly over time. The three different names are for reasons of marketing and brand recognition in different regions of the USA as well as export markets.

This would be our top recommendation for your 2015 Ford F-250 Powerstroke Diesel. Ford is calling for an API CJ-4 quality product in either a 10W-30 (above 0°F) or 15W-40 (above 20°F). The Kendall, GT-1® Diesel Motor Oil with Liquid Titanium® is only available in a 15W-40, the other two products are available in both 10W-30 and 15W-40.

Please let me know If I can be of any further assistance.

Thank you!

Can you tell me the differences between these two oils? They seem to be very similar. I plan to use this in a 2015 Ford F-250 with a 6.7L Powerstroke Diesel engine.

Thank you in advance.

Marketing. Blech!
Same oil, different bottle.
C-P is the champion of putting different names on the same oil.
That's not to say it isn't good oil, though.

UMM, is this "New source" cheaper than Wallymart ??

I spend about half the year in the USA and only buy engine oil there, cos it's cheaper. For warranty reasons I only use certified OEM filters from the stealer and Bosch fuel filters.

The link is in the OP, but you will not find Kendall oil at any WalMart that I have seen.
