Last time I bought it though, I got it from Real Canadian Superstore. It's a little cheaper there. Cata 02-23-2005, 01:29 PM Go SuperStore....they're the cheapest.... oldsnail 02-23-2005, 01:40 PM http://www.mobil.com/USA-English/Lubes/PDS/GLXXENPVLMOMobil1_0W-40.asp i dont think regular department stores carries that weight KenM 02-23-2005, 05:41 PM Superstore has some 4litre plus 1litre bonus for $28.48 in the 5w30 and 10w30 kool168 02-23-2005, 07:57 PM http://www.mobil.com/USA-English/Lubes/PDS/GLXXENPVLMOMobil1_0W-40.asp i dont think regular department stores carries that weight do you think if seattle's walmart has 0W40? kool168 02-23-2005, 07:58 PM both super store and canadian tires don't carry 0W40... Wylde Horses 02-24-2005, 01:02 AM Who cares about 0w40? That stuff is too thin unless you're living near the artic circle. Our engines run hot enough that even a 5w30 is a little on the thin side. kool168 02-28-2005, 06:52 PM Who cares about 0w40? That stuff is too thin unless you're living near the artic circle. Our engines run hot enough that even a 5w30 is a little on the thin side. the 5 represent flow rate and 30 represent thickness. so 0W40 should be for my car. impulse777 02-28-2005, 07:28 PM Hey kool go get it at mr. lube. They less oil seperate if you ask nice. And I guarantee they have 0w40 since I got some for mooshoo a month ago from there. Or just go there for your oil change the one on main and second has changed mine 5 or 6 times so at least they have some practise on a car that's exactly the same as yours. polarpreza 03-01-2005, 01:54 AM how much are the mobile 1 per litre BTW. impulse777 03-01-2005, 10:36 AM $7 or $8 per 1 litre bottle from mr lube. Wylde Horses 03-01-2005, 04:49 PM the 5 represent flow rate and 30 represent thickness. so 0W40 should be for my car. No, it represents the viscosity of the oil when cold (0) and warm (40). The oil you want to run would be ideal for an engine that operates in a very cold climate (the oil will flow pretty good when the engine is cold, minimizing wear), but runs very hot (the oil will remain pretty think, so parts get the proper coating of oil). In your car in this climate, a 0w40 will be very thin on start up, thus not protecting your engine very well, but then will be too think when it reaches operating temperatures, possibly hampering how well it flows. Exotic oil viscosities will not make your car run better – they are exotic for a reason. Have a look at this page: http://auto.howstuffworks.com/question164.htm kool168 03-01-2005, 11:02 PM No, it represents the viscosity of the oil when cold (0) and warm (40).

Mooshoo asked last month the same question as you and I went over and got 2 litres for him it was for his 911/996. So yes they do sell 0w40 mobil 1. I guarantee it. impulse777 03-02-2005, 12:29 AM http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=710249 There you go conformation. bezerk 03-02-2005, 12:39 AM what is the price at Mr. Lube for the Mobil1 0W40?...if you recall. impulse777 03-02-2005, 12:54 AM Bezerk check out Post #18 /\ Happy_Days 03-02-2005, 01:12 AM hey justin, so you are saying Mr. Lube selling mobile 1 0W40? actually i even went to walmart in US, but i still couldn't find 0W40 oil there... so i bought some extended performance 5w30 instead. it claims 15000 miles or 1 year oil change, but i am not sure if it is true though. 15,000 MILES? that is ridiculous... if you ever do it yourself.. touch/smell the dirty oil and compare it to your new container -- see how much it broke down. With regular Castrol 5w30 synthetic -- mine breaks down even as early as 3,500 to 4,000KM's.. 15,000 miles? Sure if you want to shorten the life of your engine. :lol: bezerk 03-02-2005, 01:16 AM Bezerk check out Post #18 /\ sometimes I wonder how I wake up in the morning..... :o impulse777 03-02-2005, 01:21 AM Happy days your right. Only go 15000 miles between if your on a lease and don't plan to purchase at the end :lol: kool168 03-02-2005, 02:04 AM this is wut the bottle says: http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com/wetoddimage.wtdr/wODA3MDEzNnM0MTNkZmQzMXk1NDE%3D.jpg AllWheelDrift 03-02-2005, 02:13 AM Would you like to buy a turbonator (http://www.turbonator.com/) with that?

It means that the oil covers a range of flow rates / viscosities / thicknesses / weights / whatever. When the engine is cold, the oil will have a viscosity of 0. When it reaches it's operating temp, it has a viscosity of 40. You don't seem to understand what viscosity means - you're implying it relates to two different things, and I just don't think others should be mislead. As for the performance of a 0w40 compared to a 5w30, Subaru recommends that 5w30 be used in these cars. That's the oil that suits them best. Anything thinner/thicker will not help at all. kool168 03-03-2005, 03:22 AM Both numbers, the 0 and the 40 are the flow rate, viscosity, thickness, weight, whatever you want to call it.

AllWheelDrift 03-03-2005, 11:53 AM Yeah, sorry, it was supposed to be a joke. I guess I should have used one of these: :) dunny 03-05-2005, 09:16 PM On a side note, where do I buy Motul in the Lower Mainland? I'm looking for their 300 75w90 tranmission oil and 5w30 8100 engine oil. Dunny dunny 03-07-2005, 06:04 PM Bump. Anyone know where to get Motul stuff? Dunny kool168 03-07-2005, 07:15 PM Bump. Anyone know where to get Motul stuff? Dunny many places carry it. REV does boom plus toy does and i think even specialty subaru use motul as well |
