    ACDelco Dexos 0W20 - How good is it?

    I would like to know if its a good as the Toyota TGMO 0W20 as that is the best oil at the best price that I am aware of. And in looking at the UOA in the link above I don't see a Cst at 40c so its not possible to determine the VI or am I wrong ?

    ACDelco Dexos 0W20 - How good is it?

    Will using 0w20 void my Warrenty on my 2013 Hyunda

    My believe is a 0W20 Oil of any brand is always better than a 5W20 Oil since a 0W20 has to be synthetic, I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata and I would like to use a 0W20 specifically TGMO however I am concerned that it might void my warrenty. I looked and I didn't see any other subjects like this...

    lubegard biotech

    I tried it and had high hopes but I wouldn't buy it again, I thought it would help quiet my engine but it didn't make any difference. I had good results with their Transmission Additive but not with the engine one. I think they should just stick to what they are good at Transmissions. They are...

    Who is using Mobils mPAO Base Oils.

    I didn't realise that the mPAOs where that thick so I see what you mean they could only be used in place of polymer thickers. I also didn't know that Chevron Phillips also makes an mPAO it has a lower Pour Point that the EOM mPAO but its a very thick oil as well. Chevron Phillips mPAO

    Who is using Mobils mPAO Base Oils.

    Yes I know that not all companies would want to say who / how they get their base oils but I would think that companies using mPAO would want to use it as a selling feature. The Joe Gibbs Driven Synthetic Oils ( not sure if all of them us it ) mention the mPAO is their base oil, the problem with...

    GOIL - Why isn't it more popular

    Hi thanks for the updates, I sent an email to GETG about why they don't have a 0W Oil in their BIO Based Synthetic Oils and they said they are working on it but that its challenging to produce a 0W Oil with the BIO Base Oil they are using.
