Hi all.. I live in Toronto Ontario... so this is for anyone who knows about the city.. where can I find 0w20 oil. I went to Can. tire not there.. I went to auto source not there... anyone know where I can get it on a consistent basis? Saw 5w20 but not to thrilled about using this oil during the winter months. Let me know. Thanks
I doubt you have WalMart there, but that is where I find mine. I have used 5W20 in a pinch before without any problems. Of course it doesn't get as cold here as it does there.

Hi there.. we got tons of walmart's... just difficult to find mobile 1 0w20 here... Mobile 1 did stop making it for a while but have since started making it again... so I hope I can find it...
NOCO imports many different brands of motor oil into Canada.
Just phone them and ask which types of 0W20 synthetic motor oil they have. (any brand will do) I used to buy Mobile 1 0W20 from them.
You can buy stuff from their Toronto location but ONLY if you phone ahead and place an order over the phone first.

Hey Guillermo thanks for the tip... I did find those guys... its just a bit frustrating I went to the mobil 1 site and they are again producing 0w20 but seems it hasn't reached here yet...
I do prefer the mobil 1 stuff to the others as I've looked at the specs and it does have a higher and lower tolerance than the other oils of the same make.
If any of you guys come across it definately let me know. I'm going to be scouring the earth for it on Monday. I'll give Noco a call to.
Amsoil makes a 0w20 now, it's what I run in my Insight. I got it from them through the mail. I've been told by my oil analysis guy about a great 0w20 from renewable lubricants that's quite expensive but outperforms everything he's ever seen. I run the RLI 5w30 in my Camaro, and I'm very happy with it for what that's worth.
Also, if anyone is having trouble finding Mobil 1 0w20, I have 12 quarts I got from Wal-Mart right before they stopped carrying it. I'll sell it for $5/quart if anyone's interested. I've since switched to Amsoil when they started making a 0w20, and I won't be needing the Mobil 1... e-mail me if you're interested.
