Cheap Source for 15w50 synthetic?

talltorontoguy · 05-13-2010, 08:58 PM

Anyone know of a source cheaper than the $41/5l of mobil 1 at Crappy Tire? I'm not too particular on brand, but do need synthetic and must be 15w50...

Help...

Parts Source goes on sale for $35 for that bottle every once in a while, but I've stopped searching. I just pay the $ at CT and get more CT monies.

I thought I saw that oil on sale in the CT Flyer this week. (sales ends Friday)

They have 4.4+1L bundles, but only in 5W30 and 10W30, no 15W50.

Exactly - all the stuff on sale is the wrong weight. I would use 20w50 as well if I could find it in synthetic (and at a cheaper price) - but I cannot.

Canadian tire has a house brand oil that has "with synthetic" but I don't hold much stock in that.

I'll be using it for my oil purchases. The link will ask you to print the coupon... the $10 off is about 1/2 way down.

Is running synthetic 10W30 in a 318 a bad idea?
