What about Rotella T6 5w40 vs Mobil TDT 5w40? Also can you do a 0w-40 oil comparison, or even 0w-40 vs 0w30? I know 5w-30 is usually a recommended oil, but living in Northern Illinois I like to use 0w in the winter (or even all around better cold starts in which engine wear is supposed to be most prevalent). I've also heard that Xw-40 has better Oil Film Thickness for better protection than Xw-30 during operating temps, can you confirm? Thanks!

@ Project Farm, Could you advise whether if I should use the T6 5w30 or 5w40 for my 2015 Q50 Infiniti 4dr Sedan Premium AWD 3.7L V6 with 20k miles? 5w30 full synthetic motor oil is what's recommended in the vehicle and it does have a catalytic converter but from what I continue to read is that the T6 5w40 still has the more beneficial formulation vs the T6 5w30. I mean should I try the T6 5w40 or just do the multi vehicle T6 5w30? Maybe I can even mix in just a quart of the T6 5w40 with the rest being T6 5w30? I really don't know. I live in Ohio. I currently use mobil1 5w30 full synthetic. FYI: I let the ads play in your videos to help a bit. I would be more than happy to donate to you too if my question takes a bit of research on your part: paypal; cashapp, whatever.

How about testing Shell Rotella Gas Synthetic vs high end racing oils, like Royal Purple, Redline or AMSoil. Also, another interesting test would be to try the different formulations of Mobil One. I was at the local Walmart and there are so many different versions of Mobil One. Which one is better?

@@gregkimura5906 check out bobistheoilguy, there are many different lab analysis of many different oils (including mobil variations). As for Shell Rotella Gas Synthetic vs "racing oils", if you are asking for personal advice my (and many) recommendations are all of them are fine so long as changed in 5k mile intervals and full synthetic. Also refer to the owners manual for rating (API SN Plus, ILSAC GF-6A, etc). You can usually find the rating on the oil bottle itself or look it up on the website for the most up to date information.

@@ProjectFarm I have a video idea. You can test modern off the shelf conventional motor oils against synthetics. Like Quaker State Advanced Durability 5W30 vs Mobil1 Advanced synthetic 5W30. New conventional oils meet the same specs and industry classifications as synthetics as you can see on the back of their bottles (ilsac gf5, sn plus) so I'm wondering if they perform the same? Blackstone Labs which has analyzed thousands of oil samples over the last decade said in one of their newsletters they do not see any difference in wear metals between conventional and synthetic motor oils.

What about their gasoline? Is it pretty good too? I'd think they're pretty much close to the same in brand name fuels, just curious. I've used Chevron & Shell, and a couple of small locally owned stations fuels over the years and never noticed any trouble from any of them, but the locally owned station offers non-ethanol fuel, or rather was the only one at the time offering non-ethanol, but only in premium fuel but better than running the ethanol fuels through my small engine equipment so I always bought the non-ethanol fuel from that station for my lawn/garden equipment, ran the Shell or Chevron in my vehicles. Lately I've only been running Shell because I get a few cents off per gallon over the other stations.

Have you ever tested "Diesel Engine Oils"? Would love to see Shell Rotella T5, T6, Amsoil Diesel, Amsoil Synthetic Diesel, Delvac & Mobil1 Diesel oils compete!

Add Castrol Diesel to the mix. In my area it seems to be hard to find.

In one of your prior oil head to head tests at the end you showed where they were on the "play off" rankings. Didn't see that on the end of this video. I hope you keep that updated as you do more brand testing. So we know the better oils. Thanks for all the hard work!!

I love your videos and product tests. Completely unbiased. Two thumbs up! I've got a 2017 Camaro SS, it has a 6.2L, and takes 10 qts of oil. I use Mobil 1 exclusively in it and all my vehicles for nearly 40 years, but after watching this video I may be switching to Shell. My Camaro gets stored every year from October to April/May. I put less then 1000 miles on it each year, but change the oil and filter before storage. Now my questions... Am I just throwing my money away changing the oil each year with so little miles/use? If so, at what point will Mobil 1 become acidic and not safe to leave in for storage?

Awesome video! Suggestion: include the bar graphs from the final results of the oil championship and update it with each new oil you test

Thanks for another great video! As a new Ford 6.0 Turbo Diesel owner, the information overload of the best Diesel engine oils is overwhelming. I've always been a gas guy so diesel engines are new to me. The Ford 6.0 turbo diesel is one that is extremely hard on oils in relation to shear. Some swear by Rotella T6 15-w40 all year or 5w-40 in severe cold, Mobile 1, Archoil, Schaeffer, and of course Motorcraft, and so many other diesel specific engine oils. I've always used fully synthetic oils on my gassers, but which diesel oil really holds up best under the tremendous abuse? I know it's a tall order, but I'll bet this would be a winner in regards to "views" if you can pull it off. Thanks again for the great videos. I only wish I had the time and resources to do the same.

Where did you find it a lot cheaper than Mobil 1? 5 quarts of Mobil 1 5w30 is $22.37 at Walmart. Same size of the Shell Gas Truck is $31.52 A lot of places have actually discontinued the Shell Gas Truck. Maybe bad timing.

@@timschultes6467 Yeah it's a great oil formulation, especially for heavy duty applications such as towing. It might still make sense for truck drivers that are operating in extreme conditions but at $32+ for the 5-qrt jug I'm not sure it makes financial sense for the everyday car driver that changes their oil frequently as compared to for example SuperTech Full Synthetic which is $15 dollars for the same size. If I had a truck/suv that I was going to put through some extreme use I would definitely choose the Shell Gas Truck oil since that's what it's formulated for. For my daily driver though, just doesn't make sense at this point at twice the price to use it versus SuperTech Full Synthetic which costs half as much and will do just as well under normal, day to day conditions. At $14 bucks you couldn't go wrong. At $32+ only makes sense for extreme conditions that warrant it.

As long as you take care of an engine and it doesn’t have gigantic design flaws, there’s no reason for it not to last. Your transmission will almost always be the first major failure.

@@4550Boom I feel that way too. Used to be a fan in the late 1990s and 2000s. Then they started introducing so many different types of oils it became difficult to follow, difficult to chose a good one, as their basic oils have depreciated. Became run of the mill group III oils with nothing really special going for them. The case here is an example. Btw, great selection on Project Farms part comparing these two.
