Tired of the supply chain issue and not getting th

Have been running T-6 5W40 since 2011. Never had an issue getting the oil. Now I have had my first oil change in my 6.7 PSD and had to use Mobil Diesel oil. 5,000 miles in and can hear a difference in the sound of the engine. So, shell when I get my oil sample back will you still honor your engine warrant since I was not able to get your oil ? Yes seriously I miss your oil and hurry the heck up and get t-6 to us!!

Excellent Oil

Would Recommend

After hearing and reading rave reviews on this oil, and reading posts about it on oil-focused sites and forums, I thought I would give it a try. Im running it in my 04 Grand Caravan with the 3.3L V6. Running a half-and-half mix of 5w-40 and 15w-40. Let me say this, my van has never ran so well just by changing the brand and type of oil I am using. It currently has 209k on it and runs like a top. I switched to diesel oil because it has a higher film strength, better wear packs, and bette...

I run this in everything I own

Would Recommend

Great product for cheap. I run it in a 2001 twin turbo Audi V6 - 170K miles change at 10K miles, 2002 Nissan Pathfinder - 180K miles - changed at 5K miles, BMW R1200GSA motorcycle - 133K miles - changed at 4K miles. This oils exceeds all manufacturer's specifications, never had any issues. Last time I opened the valve covers on the bike it looked brand new in there at over 100K miles

The amount of wear on my Corolla engine was so low

Would Recommend

I ran this oil in my Toyota Corolla for 10,000 miles, and had it tested by Blackstone Labs, and the amount of wear in those 10,000 miles was so low that it almost could not be measured, and Blackstone said that the oil was still pristine, and that I could easily run it for another 5,000 miles.

Give me synthetic or, give me nothing!

Would Recommend

I have a 05’ Chevy D max since new. Dino oil that came with it for the 10,000 break in and changed it with T6 ever since. C’mon, you cannot see what is happening inside you engine unless you break it down. The premise of using a good quality synthetic motor oil is based on the comfort that you WON’T have to break it down because you know that oil is making sure your engine is getting lubed. Diesel engines are quite expensive so putting the best oil in equates to as little wear as possible. I use...

I live in a cold climate at or above 15 degrees, I just did a oil change on my 05 F350 6.0L powerstroke 90KM, works good but takes 30 mins for oil to heat up with engine heater

I have been using Rotella in my 1997 Ford F-250 since I bought the truck new in 1997. I switched from T-4 to T-6 a few years ago and only use about 4 oz of oil between changes every 5000 miles. The truck starts much easier in cold weather. I have 178,000 miles on the truck and I have no oil leaks.

Fantastic oil

Would Recommend

Ok, just an update today. I changed oil today at 3000 miles with Quaker state Advanced durability 10w/30 in my 1997 Camaro. Engine is running even smoother now. Truly unbelievable. I must’ve have gotten rid of that Castrol once and for all that was in the lifters and bearings. Great oil at a great price.

Best oil for my custom 1991 Volvo 740 turbo

Would Recommend

I've been using shell rotella t6 5w40 for about a year now and this oil is awesome! Run it in my 1994 jeep grand Cherokee 4.0l and my 1991 Volvo 740 turbo and the engines love it they run alot smoother and quieter and shell rotella t6 5w40 is my first choice for my vehicles for the protection of the internal parts of my engines and to keep them running strong and running long!

Clean

Would Recommend

I have 146000 on my f350 recently replaced all the injectors, when we pulled the valve covers off I was impressed they looked like new no sludge or anything. I remember 40 years ago my father in law told me to use shell Rotella if you want a clean engine. He was right.

Quieter engine

Would Recommend

Starting from the beginning. I own a 1997 Chevy Camaro. I just had the engine replaced about 1 month ago. Drove 500 miles and changed oil with Castrol GTX. After 600 miles my engine developed a loud chatter. This engine has a roller cam and I should hear some noise but louder than usual. I came to the conclusion that this oil sucks. Changed oil again today with 10w30 Advanced durability Quaker state and what an impressive result! Very quiet and smoother operation. Thanks Quaker state. Your oil ...

Harley Davidson 2018 Road Glide

Would Recommend

I used to run this oil in my Victory Cross Country, but I did feel the clutch slipping from time to time. Like most Harley guy's, I was very finicky with how I maintain my bike. I purchased an S&S 124CI kit for my Road Glide and was waiting for the parts to arrive. I still needed to ride until then, but my bike needed an oil change so I took the chance because I knew how well my Victory ran with it, plus I was just trying to be cheap since I had to dump the oil anyway for the new motor build and...
