To Got-Titan, I have been away for a few days. I am glad at least someone else has seen the "New AC" also. I wish I could find another bottle of this stuff to stop all this naysaying here on this board. It makes no difference to most of these guys that the Castrol web site says they are making...

Guys, I received this from Castrol Consumer relations today. From how I read it, changes may occure, or may not, to our favorite oil. My question to them was, " is the American SYNTECH 0w-30 the "exact" same as German ow-30, and how can I get a bottle of the new stuff which they never responded...

To 917990 This was a different lable than the one on the link you showed. It for sure was "SL". The bottle looks the same, but the lable was different on both sides. I am sure, that the number was M13XXX, that and the fact the lable was different from what I originally saw, is the only reason I...

Went by AZ yesterday evening. What they had was not the same stuff I saw back in May. I have never seen pre-GC 0w-30. But this stuff (they had about 30 quarts) was Syntech 0w-30 not German made. It was a completely different label. Very basic, no pictures, did not list all the #'s like they...

I received a call (message)from an AZ in Punta Gorda Fl. today, (it is Sunday) I have never seen 0w30 there in either GC or old AC ( but to be truthfull I have never really looked except in the past 5 months or so). I had left them a message that if they got any new 0w-30 in that was not made in...

Fuel for the fire, boy, you guys are tough. When I had made my last post yesterday, I had called Castrol again for information. They called me back today on my cell. I told them the whole long story about how I had seen this stuff, could not now get my hands on a quart to answer a lot of...

Guys, I had no idea what an uproar this would make. Perhaps I should not have reported what I had seen. TO Coop0129, I called the AZ I saw the stuff in. (it was in Port Charlotte, Fl.) The young man I talked to said he remembered the oil, that they received one case, mixed in with other oils. I...

Jag, Castrol now has the 0w-30 on thier web site. I did take a look, it shows passing the 229.5 that you asked. As far as I can remember, the bottle looked just like the rest of the SYNTEC bottles except for a red banner that said new Euro formula

I posted info on the GC forum. " You can rest assured that Castrol SYNTEC 0w-30 available in North America, is the exact same product as Castrol SYNTEC 0w-30 manufactured in Germany" Consumer Relations Castrol North America

I was in an Auto Zone about a week ago, saw "New Euro Formula SYNtec 0W30 made in USA. I did not buy any, but instead e-mailed Castrol Consumer Relations. I stated that the German Castrol carried a lot of respect on various web sites, but the USA made Syn was a different story... and what was...

OK Guys, After reading on this great forum for several months, I have become "hooked". I now check BITOG before I even open my mail. I have never gotton into anything like this since 7-8 years ago when I got into old Ford 8N tractors and couldn't leave it alone. I started out on the reg. oil...

Was at an AZ store here in south Florida over the weekend. Had never heard of GC before I started reading BITOG. Thought I would see if any GC was here. Did not find any made in Germany, BUT... did find some 5w40 Syntec that stated "Euro formula now made in the USA" on the back of the bottles...

Guys, I tried this product again, "after reading the instructions". At my age, there are few things in life which suprise me anymore. However, this is one that created a "WOW" factor. I have a dark green 05 Tundra Double cab and the wife a black suv, both just a year old. Both are "bears" to...
