Cheap oil right now.
« on: September 12, 2011, 08:51:24 PM »
I know we all have our preference for oil but partsource is selling 5 liter castrol gtx high mileage oil normally 43 for 17.79. Just thought I'd pass that on to stock up for your next oil change or two.

I don't have a costco card so I have never checked the prices there. That's good to know though. :)

I did an oil change just over a month ago and I'm doing another because I have to replace my rear main... again. Should be a quick fix. :D

I wish Costco would sell it by the 4-5 liter jug.  I'm not big on pouring all my oil back into 1L bottles. I usually wait til Canadian Tire puts it on for $12-15/jug.

Do they ever have better prices on Castrol out here? I've always been a Castrol fan, but haven't ever seen it cheap like last night.

I pour my drain pans into an old 5 gallon water jug and take that in. The dump will take less then 20l at a time.

Shell Rotella 10w30 and 15w40 is all I run in my Jeeps now. Great quality oil, and has extra ZINC for the old 4.0. Also it's priced fairly close to everything else. Gonna start buyin the 20L pails soon!
