  • FYI: TDI guys - 5w40 Shell Rotella synthetic for $100/pail in Edmonton

    Thought it was a pretty good deal, so I'd thought I'd let you all know.

      I have heard of plenty of people running them in gas engines as well, not just the TDI's

          I run Rotella T6 in all my gas mk3's except the cabriolet. It's good stuff, and my winter beater burned a lot less oil running Rotella.

            Yeah I've run t6 in all of my gas cars for the last probably 5-6 years.

                If anyone wants me to check this out I can. I go through Edmonton twice every month and I could pick them up and bring them down to Calgary.

                    I can see if I can get a deal if I buy a bunch at once. The seller was pretty quick to reply to me that he has 40+ in stock. I'll see how much interest there is and I might buy 5-10 at a time and bring them down if we can get a decent deal.

                      I'd be in as well if you're setting this up

                          Hmm - I might be down for a test pail or two. Keep us posted on pricing/delivery!

                            I'm not looking to sell them for profit. Just figured I could hook up fellow members. I've needed parts a few times and members have helped me out. The guy called me today checking to see how many I wanted and said he has 40+ of these. I'm not sure if I'm working a 2 or 3 week shift right now so that's my hold up. I'll probably buy 10 of these on my way home and post up to see who wants them. Should I start a new post to start a list?

                              I may be in for one. Can you run this stuff in the PD engines?
