I moved to Pennzoil Platinum Euro Full Synthetic 5w-40 with fantastic results... MPG increase by at least 1 mpg. 2.1L motor.

Based on this review via Project Farm, I feel it will have a better life over time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWuKvnCq1js

Hey guys,

Mobile 1 15w-40 is getting hard to find locally. What do you guys think of the diesel oils like this the shell rotella stuff like this https://www.autozone.com/motor-oil-and-transmission-fluid/engine-oil/p/shell-rotella-t6-diesel-engine-oil-hd-full-synthetic-15w-40-1-gal/354130_0_0

32.99 for 5 quarts is way cheaper than the 9.99 a quart for the mobile 1. I don’t mind paying the extra but if this diesel oil is just as good may as well save a few bucks. Thanks for any comments. Peace tom
