Forgot about magnatec. Lots of people have had good luck using this in diluting tgdi engines. It's priced right as well. Don't forget that pennzoil has a rebate through the end of the year and Valvoline has a rebate through the end of the month.
Good call on the rebates. I'll mention that to her.
With the current Cyber Monday Walmart pricing at $19.98 for a 5-quart of PP or PUP, they'd be paying you $0.02 after the $20 Shell gas rebate to use their oil.

What is that cert? Higher HTHS?
Dexos 1 Gen 2, GM's cert that tackles LSPI and piston deposits in TGDI vehicles.
