I would imagine 5W-20 is heading your way soon too. 5W-20 should be fine.

I bought 12 Liters of 0W20 Mobil 1 from NOCO last year in Toronto, Canada.
They also have a location in Montreal.

Canadian tire has lots of 0W20. (Montreal)

these are synthetics right guys? Not regular.... funny I've been to Can tire many times and never seen synthetic 0w20 oil at all this thanks for the website I'll take a gander there!

I would not use 5w 20 oil in my car...

Mobil 1 is synthetic .
I have never seen 0W20 in any store in Ontario.

Well Can Tire indeed does carry it 7.99 a bottle however Guillermo your store is 7.45 however they make you buy a pack of 6 can't buy then individually.

Our cars only need 4 bottles yes? Lastly you know what I forgot to ask what about filters? Can we get filters for our cars common place here?

thanks!

The Insight requires 2.5 Liters (2.5 bottles) for an oil change.
Why keep going back to buy oil on a regular basis?
I buy 12 liters at a time for convenience.

I buy the high quality "Made in Japan" Honda oil filters from #7 Honda in Woodbridge, north of Toronto.
Their price is 3 for $20 taxes included.
Normal price is $7.50 plus 15%tax each.

I would never use cheap oil filters.
You get what you pay for.

In Vancouver I can get only 0w-30 in Napa and wal mart I 've been using it for almost 4 years. according to the owner's manual 5w-20 is fine.
also filter can be found in Napa part no. 1365. front brake pad AEC7705, brake rotor p/n 85891

Hi Mike your using 0w 30 in your car? I wonder if that would affect fuel mileage?

I don't know but i'm getting 3.5liter/100km there is no change since new

 

[meow77]

hmmm.... not bad I must say.... however over there in Vancouver I know your winters are no where near as bad as ours.... in really cold weather it might make a difference... for you probably not...

I found it at Part Source last week (Canadian Tire's Automotive only store), in Waterloo.
They say they usually have 2 cases in stock, no problem to get more.
Whoohoo!

 

[meow77]

Never heard of part source... I'd also consider the source... how can they get more etc.. if moblil 1 has stopped making the stuff?

Not to be argumentative, but you asked where you could get it, not how long it would be around

Presumably they have a few skids of the stuff in a central warehouse, so given the limited audience it will be available for some [undetermined amount of] time yet.

Part Source only appeared in the 'loo about 1.5 years ago, so I do not know how widespread the store is in Ontario or Canada.

 

[meow77]

well if they have some I'm happy for you...

thx

If your up for a trip, try the Victoria area, I've seen the 0-20w at multiple locations in the area within the last year.

 

[meow77]

are you talking Victoria BC? lol.... that's not a trip for me that would be an expidition... I'm in Toronto

 

[collwjhcwu]

I guess that might be a little much, huh :lol:
