I've been a long time reader on this forum, however never needed to post. I do now have a questions with regards to the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W30 oil.
My new Forester XT requires 5.4L of oil for an OC, and I was able to pick-up a 5L jug on special, however I don't want to split a 5L for just the remaining 0.4-0.5L that I need. I was able to find locally the PUP 5W30 in a 1 Quart bottle (picked up the last 2 they had), however, just noticed when I got home the date stamped on the bottle reads April 2014.
Does the date matter for the oil? Seeing it's almost 3yrs old? Both bottles are sealed (by the looks of it) and stamped the same date 04/2014, and I'm hesitant to use the oil seeing it's almost 3yrs old.
Any feedbacks?
