you can buy Valvoline Synpower at any NAPA Auto Parts Store.
Just go out and buy Valvoline SynPower 5W40...
I am the person who posted those Valvoline 5w-40 vs. Mobil 1 10w-30 results long ago and started spreading the word about this oil and where to find it. The results show that the Vavloline 5w-40 is a very good choice for this motor. The last sample had nearly 9,000 miles on it, and the oil was well within viscosity and oxydation tolerances for 5w-40, and labeled suitable for continued use. Further, after 9,000 miles, wear metals were very low.
Valvoline Synpower also meets as many specs as Syntec. Synpower 5w-40 meets API SL/SJ, ACEA A3, and VW 502.00 and VW 505.00. Plus, you can get it for less than 5 bucks a quart
I've used Valvoline Synthetic 5W-40 for 2 years now, I'm very happy witht the oil's performance in all conditions.
I now am using Valvoline In my A2 vr6 and no complaints.The car runs cool and burns no oil at all.By the way,my VR has 80 some thousand miles.
funny how many people have switched... from mobil to valvoline. I did too over 2 years ago with great results w/ regard to oil consumption at least. I also run the 5w-40
I still have to call my local NAPA dealer and he gets it in a day or two ... another happy Valvoline 5W40 camper here. Almost 15000 miles and 3 Valvoline changes here
I waited 9,000 miles to change my oil most recently (with 36,000 total on my VR6 Jetta). The oil is Valvoline 5w-40 synthetic, which I buy from my local NAPA who now stocks it - finally. Bottom line - oil was still in very good condition - still suitable for further use - viscosity still well within 5w-40 perameters @ 14.1. Trace metals ppm were amazingly low for 9,000 miles of use.
