[LiquidTurbo]

If you know a thing or two about UOAs, PP is one of the TOP oils for the buck. Awesome heads up, thanks!

[J____]

shit son! im bringing a truck! thnx!

[death_blossom]

I heard that Pennzoil's synthetic oil is one of the worst synthetics you can get.

[tofu1413]

^ naw. certain grades of castrol are worse from what i've seen. value "synthetics" at cambodian tire + walmart arent anybetter either.



this stuff + quaker + valvoline is pretty good for the mid priced syn oils.

[BEEB]

it's always under 20 bucks at lougheed one, i've been using it year long

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

it's always under 20 bucks at lougheed one, i've been using it year long

are u sure? ALWAYS? like in 24/7??? i dont remember it being that cheap.



is that deal only available at grandview location? or its legit for any other wal-mart????

[Great68]

I heard that Pennzoil's synthetic oil is one of the worst synthetics you can get.

Not true.

Pennzoil platinum is one of the oils of choice in the Mazdaspeed community. UOA's posted by various users seem to back up it's good performance. It's what I'm running in my MS3.

Now we know how low your credibility is.

Mobil 1 is now = meh.

For it's price, Pennzoil synthetic oil gets pretty good reviews from Bob the oil guy.

Also, all Walmarts had the 4.4 L jugs for $20 since last week. Hopefully they stocked up cause they were sold out at the Queensborough location on sunday.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

so whos been at the grandview location today? how many more r left?

thought it doesnt start until tomorrow



so anyone can confirm? just grandview location or all

[fliptuner]

All + ends tomorrow

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

thank you sir

i hope they are not sold out, gonna go grab some after work

[tofu1413]

they had quite a few left on the shelf last night.


i was with OP when he picked up three jugs himself.


teh doucher// since you worked at mr lube.. havent you heard about the problem with mobil 1 recently...? i bet you have no idea. pennzoil/quaker state still better than the castrol bulk.

[Johnrb]

O.o the 4L jugs have always been about 20 bucks in Surrey?

if you can..
go to the states if you want to stock up on cheap oil :D

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

^

wats the problem with mobile 1, not that i use...just curious

:D

[skyxx]

^ Price is technically the only factor. :)

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

i believe they raised their prices

$41 a jug now versus back than $32-35 a jug for canadian market

i havent worked at mr.lube for a long time, so no i dont know about the problems with mobil 1. i actually dont even run synthetic in my car, dont see the need to. hate to back peddle, but i run 5-20 quaker state in my tl.

and what makes you such a credible source? ive been trying to find evidence to support what ive been saying but all i come across are tests done by amsoil.

Cheaper than Castrol Edge which is technically a bit better than Mobil 1 but the cost is quite alot.

woot picked up 3 jugs

still lots on the shelf

One issue with Mobil 1 that is well documented is on the S2000's and their timing chain tensioners failing on cars that are using Mobil 1.

The biggest issue with Mobil 1 is that they are charging premium prices for dino oil. It's been talked about quite extensively on the net and on Revscene. You pay close to $40 for 4.4 L and $33 when on sale for 5 L.
The Pennzoil Platinum is $34 regular price for 4.73L at WalMart and right now the 4.4L is on sale for under $20.


Since you worked at a Mr. Lube and are such an expert on oil, please tell us why Pennzoil = meh?

If you want to do some reading up on oil, check this site.

[ncrx]

pennzoil platinum euro formula is the one you want 5w40 aka shell helix ultra. else a cheaper alternative and good for guys who run boost is shell rotella t6 synthetic 5w40

fyi, shell owns pennzoil and quaker state. the 5w40 full synthetic euro formula stuff sold under both brands uses essentially the shell helix ultra base stocks. they have virtually the same specs and Cst flow rates if you look up the specs.

i have used the pennzoil euro formula and its decent.

[oldsnail]

you be trollin'



No wayyyyyy. I've never seen it for under 20 bucks at the Lougheed Mall one.................

ive picked it up a few times for under 20.
lowest ive seen was 17 @ walmart.. that is when i stock up.. i have 26.4L left.

[True.True]

grabbed 8 jugs woot

[BEEB]

geez guys, i was at the lougheed mall one yesterday and there's dozens. Located right at the front of the ally for automotive stuff. Most 5W30 gone, and only the 10W30 left.

[M Speed]

Grandview location= 5w30 only
North van = 5w30 only

i have never once actually said that i was some kind of expert because i worked at mr.lube, i simply stated that i worked there because of tofu's comment about working there. "pennzoil=meh" comment is mostly opinionated, but that link i provided does show that mobil 1 does perform better then pennzoil synthetic.

i wasnt aware of the problems with the s2000 timing chains and tensioners, has it actually been proven that the damage was done by the oil itself?...

mobil 1 charging premium prices for dino oil? mobil 1 is a full synthetic, their dino oil is sold under a different name, mobil super 2000 or something along those lines, its sold at a higher cost because its just the name thats on the bottle, its all a marketing thing. the oil itself is similar to the "esso" branded stuff you can buy.

[DC5-S]

There was only one left at guildford location, was kinda pissed about that.

yeah, mobil has their non synthetic mobil 1000 stuff, mobil 2000 being semi synthetic.

if you havent heard, i believe valvoline or someone along the lines like that, did a test on competitor oils and found mobil one to not even meet minimum required specs set by SAE (or something like that)

this news was like about a year ago, when i actually quit mr lube. now you are informed. we have no idea what happened after someone proved that mobil one is making sub standard synthetic oil.

[shenmecar]

Grandview location= 5w30 only

I was at the Grandview Hwy one and there were LOTS of 10W30.

lol u are hardcore

[hk20000]

I can look up bob the oil guy but is this supposed to be Grp IV stuff?

[Great68]

im gonna go ahead and post it anyways, http://www.bigskyoil.com/amsoil_testing/amsoil_testing.html

Uhh, you realize that site SELLS Amsoil products. So those results are TOTALLY unbiased right?...

[LiquidTurbo]

mobil 1 is a full synthetic,

Um, no it's not. Stop spreading mis-information. M1 mostly composed of a hydro-cracked GroupIII base stock. If you want a genuine full synthetic oil, then you have to look at Amsoil SSO, which is made of Group IV Polyalphaolefins.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

mobil 1 charging premium prices for dino oil? mobil 1 is a full synthetic,stuff you can buy.

Son, you better remove that fail you gave me cause you just FAILED yourself.

First off, it is a well know fact that M1 uses a mineral oil base that has been heavily processed to which it meets the criteria to call themselves a "synthetic" oil. Castrol was the first one to do it back in the 90's.

http://www.syntheticoildealer.com/a_defining_moment_for_synthetics.htm

Like what Liquidturbo said, a true "synthetic" oil is one made from synthetic base.

I know this is from Motul, but it gives you a good idea of what a true "synthetic" oil is.

http://www.motul-canada.com/en/faq/faq.shtml?panel=6

And yes, it is well known within the S2ki community about not using M1 as it will cause the TCT to fail.

BTW, true "synthetic" oils are made in Europe and cost at least $15 per quart. The cheapest one would be the German Castrol 0W30 which was on sale at CT a few months ago for $7 a quart.

[SumAznGuy]

Darn.. guessing the deal is over?

I believe today is the last day of the sale. New ad starts tomorrow IIRC.

[you!]

so im gonna be heading down to grandview sometime at 7pm to pick some up...r there still plenty left??

Mr lube never informed their employees or such. stupid eh? and mobil one supplies them.

[SumAznGuy]

well i consider my self pwned now. thanks for providing all the right info dude, i appreciate it.

To be fair, there is some truth to Pennzoil being not that great. Back in the 50's and 60's, Pennzoil was known for some wax/crud build up in engines, but today their oils are quite good.

I'd go and stock up on some more PP but I already have 12 quarts of the german Castrol 0W30 and 8L of Rotella 10W40.
All this is for the summer when I do track days.

And I also have some PP for my next oil change in 2000 km's.

[saveth]

i wish i bought more german castrol when it was on sale. Im about 2000km away from an oil change and it hasnt gone back on sale since.

[CORDV6]

Thats not a bad deal, I usually buy my oil when I go to the states. Most often the price is cheaper, and there is no Enviro tax etc...
I have a bit of a sickness where i tend to HOARD Oil whenever it goes on sale. There was a time when Superstore was clearing out their oil I bought:
30x1L Dino Quaker State for 44cents each- 5w20
Formula Shell 4- 6.99/4 liters x2
Quakerstate Q synthetic 15x4.4L- $12.99each

I filled up a whole shopping cart with just oil. My GF reaction was priceless.WTF!! haha

And the ultimate score ever was at Walmart Queensbrough- 5liters jugs of Quakerstate Dino both in 10w30/5w30 for 5 bucks each. Wiped out the whole inventory in multiple trips to and from the car. Had over 40 jugs in my car that time!!..

[saiko]

I believe today is the last day of the sale. New ad starts tomorrow IIRC.

Aww man.. I don't really need it, but I have this stupid knack for things where I feel like I should "stock up" just because it's momentarily affordable. :p

[jlenko]

ALWAYS? like in 24/7???

Walmart is only 24/7 around Christmas time... ;)

[keifun]

Just bought a jug today..but with me being a dumbass, I needed 5W30 instead of the 10W30 that I bought.

Anybody wanna trade?

pm me. thanks!!!

[saiko]

Not 100% sure but today's Canadian Tire flyer is selling Pennzoil synthetic for $26.

You are totally right. There is no concrete proof on the internet, but it is something that has been passed around for a while.

Either way, there is enough proof that the present day Pennzoil is good for it's price. :thumbsup:

i was at the new west walmart yesterday and the only thing i saw for sale at $19.47 was the non-synthetic pennzoil :(
