Picked up HONDA HG 0w-20 synthetic ...

[odie]

from a parts department for $7.94 . It's SN / GF-5 . Went to few other HONDA parts departments and said it wasn't available and only produce the blend or have to buy the MOBIL 1 0w-30 . Nobody is on the same page about the synthetic . Got a HONDA oil filter and some metal crush washers for the upcomong 2011 FIT oil change . Is this the Conoco / Phillips ? Wonder if it has the titanium .

What does the bottle look like? When they went to CP the shape of the bottle changed.

 

[odie]

It's silver with a blue strip and HG in red .

 

[CATERHAM]

Yes that's the CoP made oil.

Another member, BruceT had the 100% syn version tested and it contains no significant moly or Ti.

 

[odie]

Thanks . I'm already starting to miss my Moly

.

 

[odie]

Any Moly in the new TOYOTA 0w-20 synthetic ? May have to start a different relationship , since no Moly . Rebounding .

 

[CATERHAM]

Then in future you'll have go with the Toyota Brand 0W-20 or the Subaru 0W-20. The later is made by Idemitsu like the original Honda oil was and still is for the Canadian Honda and Acura dealers.

$8/qt is not a remarkable price and there are other Xw20s available for that kind of money.

I typically get the Honda 0w20 syn from the dealer for our company's Odysseys for about $5/qt.

 

[Indydriver]

0 titanium
~100 ppm moly
~200 ppm boron

The blend had as good or better measurable add pack but about 10% lower TBN.

I bought some -9037 mail order on 3/28 for $5.97 ea. Just checked that same source and they now charge $6.94(+frt of course).

I'll bet that's the blend and not the "Ultimate Full Synthetic".

If I had a car spec'd for 0w20 I'd save some coin and snag some Mobil 1 from Walmart.

Amazon is selling Accel by Warren 6 qt's 0w-20 for $22.74. API SN rated (API symbol and all LOL). This includes free shipping if you spend $25.00 (possibly NO sales tax either). It seems Warren blends decent oil.

That's not the way to save coin, Toyota's 0w20 costs less than that.

 

[Torrid]

Shows how much I know about 0w20. I've never shopped for it.

 

[HTSS_TR]

Toyota's 0w20 full-syn costs less than M1 0W20 in Canada, but in states M1 0W20 is only $25 for 5-qt jug at WM and Toyota's 0w20 full-syn is more than $7/qt at most dealers (at least at dealers around Orange County, So Cal)

I thought a few members on here had mentioned getting Toyota 0w20 in the US for less than $5 per quart?

It's the full syn, we just give them lots of business so he cuts me a break.

Although the Subaru factory fill has high levels of moly, the dealer service fill does not because of GF5.

[Torrid]

GF5 has cut moly levels? That doesn't sound right.

 

[CATERHAM]

bluesubie, are you saying that the Subaru Brand 0W-20 is GF-5?
The reason I ask is because the Toyota Brand 0W-20 and the Canadian Honda and Acura Brand 0W-20's are still SM GF-4.
