    nothing like nonsense viewed on the internet to spawn more nonsense.. "read it on the intenet..must be true!". Need to do a bit more "reading".
    :cool:
    The people that posted such are very misinformed. You can get clutch slip with ANY oil, non synth-semi-full, if it has energy conserving on the label.

    Where are the coupons to get this stuff cheaper? It's gone up to $25 a gallon at autozone in my area.

    That's interesting to see that they're making a 5-30w now. I think since the cat was let out of the bag a few years ago that Rotella will not cause your non-diesel to blow up and is actually one of the best oils for most engines, demand has gone way up and Shell wants to capitalize by making different viscosities. Expect the price to keep climbing as a result. :down:

    They experienced clutch slip themselves and switched from the Rotella T Syn. to another unspecified oil. How is that "misinformed?" Sounds like a direct experience to me.

    dont see the benefit.. a rotella gallon is 25USD = 1200 pesos
    a Repsol race 4t 10w-50 the super hi end stuff is 1400 pesos, line 7 dolars more and its 4 liters (a bit more than one gallon)
