where?

[climacus]

where?

Appears to be chain wide.

[zero_]

is this the lowest price?

[HyperTech]

i think the coupon apply on the 5w20 too, but it seem that costco around montreal doesnt carry them.

IIRC, only the 0W30 grade is FULL synthetic (meets European requirements), everything else is highly-refined dino oil.

Also, anyone living near the border could consider a tip to a US Wal-Mart, where the regular price of 5qts/4.73l of Syntec (most grades) is around US$21. I wouldn't make a special trip, but if you're going anyway...

I believe you're right. You could also just look for a Made In Germany label on the bottle and if it is, it's true full synthetic.

Coupon apply to all Castrol oils at Costco.

Re: full or 90% synthetic , I think this is a fight you don't want to get in with the purists, class III class IV and so on.

Bottom line is this oil is GREAT for you engine and will protect it much better than regular oil in conjunction with a decent filter.

+1

Make sure if you are going to buy Syntec that you look for the Made in Germany in the back of the 0W30 bottle and I believe you can only get them in 1 litre bottles cause I could never find them in 4-5L jugs

Some peole here recomend the WIX or Fram Platinum as cheap ones or K&N as the best.

I got mine (WIX) from Bensons and is sold under Kralinator brand ...

[apn64]

Benson's also sells the K&N (at the one for my Accord) at a lower price than CT.

I just been there today and they only carry K&N air filters in Waterloo... but the Kralinator had a few really good reviews so I think for 5k changes should suffice.

[cutesnoopydoll]

can this oil be use in "snow-blower"?

Stittsville.

Synthetic oil is fine, but I would suggest a grade other than 5W20. IIRC, small engines use something closer to 10W30 (SAE 30). Check your owners manual for the specific grade required.

[Badman]

Thanks op, I find it useful having them in 1 litere bottles instead of a full jug.

As for the "full sythetic" formula's, although great i'm sure a stock car (especially lower end(i.e civic/corolla) would make much of a difference.

I have an Ariens. I emailed customer service & was advised it was ok for me. not sure if it applies to all blowers.
