Amazon Synthetic oil

[noderman]

Maybe I'm a little out of the loop here. Has anyone seen or used this? If I hadn't already bought oil for today's oil change, I may have just gone with this.

Well that's a stoopid good deal unless there is a catch.

Could be the MAG1 full synthetic from Warren Distribution.

Could be anything!(huh)

This is cheaper at <$3 a qt

And we all know cheaper is better when it comes to motor oil.(hand)

From the API website under Warren Distribution:

amazonbasics Full Synthetic dexos1 0W-20 SN Resource Conserving, SN Plus GF-5I

So it meets API specs per above.

Yep, Dollar General or bust

Rebates can suck, but Ive had 100% success doing Pennzoil and Mobil1 rebates. Pennzoil full synthetic currently $22 for 5 quarts at Walmart right now. Get $10 back with Pennzoil online rebate. Or wait for Mobil 1 to do a better rebate, usually $17 off 5 quarts plus oil filter and combine that with $33 Advance Auto Parts deal. $16 after rebate for high quality oil and filter.

It is $22.99 for 5 quarts. What is so great about that? For $5 bucks more you can get the recommended Castrol brand.

You can get PP at Walmart for the same price.

Speaking of the devil, my $1 off per gallon up to 20 gallons of gasoline Shell rebate came today (from last months $23 Walmart Pennzoil full synthetic purchase). Gassing up my Odyssey for maximum savings tomorrow

Well s***, someone made a review of this oil lol. Project Farm is pretty good.

The Amazon oil is made by Warren Distribution who also makes Supertech for Walmart. In all likelihood its the same stuff.

Its decent oil but you can get Supertech for a couple of bucks cheaper.

Guys check out this link: http://pqiamerica.com/PCMO_Sample_Summary_12_15_2016.html

You can do a search for oils. Long story short Amazon 0w20 Volatility, mass % loss, 1 hr scores really good. 9.9% loss. Everything else ranges from 10-13%.

Only thing better is Amsoil Signature series (7.6% loss) but they did not test 0w20 though.


Edit: Mobil Annual is at 8.5%

Wow, excellent resource! Thank you so much for sharing!

I wouldnt hesitate to use the Amazon stuff. Ill stick with Mobil One Advanced Fuel Economy, Extended Performance or Pennzoil Platinum as long as they keep up with their mail in rebate programs. The Advanced Fuel economy has really low cold cranking viscosity and I didnt know that. If it werent for mail in rebates, Id switch to SuperTech based on this resource to stay as cheap as possible, or the AmazonBasics if I didnt feel like going out physically shopping.
