I'm sure it's a very good oil, but over here, that Camry would be running the 5W-20 or 5w30. Same with the Accord.

Im sure it is a good oil but 5w-40 is not for #@$%! cars its good on german stuff

 

[Syntec-Man]

The forum software stops racial slurs, but you've obviously found a way around it. Also, you're supposed to use a capital 'G' in the word German.

I've got two UOAs on it on the board.
One for my turbodiesel Navara (3.0 4 cyl D.I. Turbo),
One for a workmate's Prado (3.4V-6).

For half the cost of M1 0W-40, I'm impressed with it.

Hi Guys.
The main reason that i am interesting on this oil is the price.
A$ 5.50 a litre for me.(Trade bulk price.)
According to the product data sheet it must be a Group3/Ester blend.(-36c' pour point)
What do you guys know about Indonesian made AC Delco engine oil filters? Very cheap #@$%!2.94 a filter.

Didn't know there was such a thing. If it's not made in yankeeville, it's not the real thing. I suspect it's a counterfeit.
