Johnny Joined May 27, 2002 Messages 14,013 Location Retired | Wausau, WI Sep 29, 2010 #29 Is the new XL line a licensed GM Dexos 1 product? Did Amsoil jump on the bandwagon with the 5W-30 XL oils?

Amsoil is not alone as other major oil companies have said nay as well. It's been posted here on the board before:

Referring to Valvoline, Castrol, CITGO, and Chevron. And as big as GM is, if it ain't on THEIR approved list, well lawyers will make a lot of money in litigations.
