Is Warren going to be the next oil rage?

Their lubes meet a bunch of specs. Not much talk about them though.

Lord I hope not.

Their oil is not going to be cheaper for too much longer anyways.

PU will be the next rage

I am using their licensed ATF+4. It works great so far.

Is this the company that makes Walmart Supertech dino and synthetic oils?

The next oil rage? Not as long as trusted name brand oils continue to go on sale and or have nice fat rebates.

I don't believe they are the same. The company that makes the Supertech is Warren Performance Products at http://www.wd-wpp.com/international.html. The Warren Unilube in this thread manufactures for Autozone and others.

Jeepman is correct. There are two Warren oils, which have no affiliation to eachother.


Warren Performance Products bottles many house brand oils. If you look at the bottom of an oil bottle and it has the stamp WPP or WNE, thats their product.

Warren Unilube/Warren Oil bottles Coastal oils, Advance Auto house brand, and Lubrigard HDEO, among others. Usually their bottle stamp looks like WU(the U looks a little funky, but readable)

I was at Dollar Tree recently, looking and laughing at they're generic auto fluid section. The bottles labeled "Power steering fluid", and "Brake fluid", the back of the bottle said it was a Warren product

WPP or WNE = Warren Performance Products. They are out of Nebraska.

WU = Warren Unilube. They are out of Arkansas.


I have used Supertech oils/products a long time. To my knowledge, WU has never made any ST products. Up here in New England, Supertech oil is suppled by XOM(5W30-20W50 dino) and WPP (HM, Syn, and 5W20). WPP also supples/packages other fluids as well. Prior to WPP/XOM, PZQS (Pennzoil Quaker State) supplied the oil. I still have a quart or two of their last SL formula 10W30. I think it was $.74 a quart.

Every once in a while, the XOM supply will be short (like during Katrina) and WalMart will stock the WPP 5W30-20W50 oils instead of XOM.

I have no idea what the next oil rage will be. I know for me, it was Quaker State Q-Torquepower and Horsepower. Prior to that, it was Chevron Delo 400 SAE30 HDEO($.99/gallon). Imagine an 8-10K mile OCI that costs under $3.00 with a $.95 Advance Auto filter.
It costs more to get a "Great One" size coffee from Dunkin Donuts.

I'd give their microbe oil spill cleaner a shot.

Me, I like large, American companies, I am in the process of switching to Mobil 1.

I just purchased 20 quarts of Supertech Dexron VI, so I guess I made my contribution to whoever makes it. Going to be doing a cooler line flush this weekend (hopefully).
