Where to buy mobil oil in bulk

[4agte]

not a bad idea just thought that from a wholesaler of sorts they might give you a better price than a auto store...?

[TooF]

depends on how good a terms you are with said auto store

i wanted to get the Motul oil i use in 20L but unfortunantly they dont supply it in anything bigger then the 5L

[4agte]

i hear that motul can be difficult to work with the company not the oil that is

i dont get trade at any part stores i know so i guess thats where im at

[TooF]

dont know i just asked my supplier and they said that motul didnt supply it in the 20L. if they did but it was too much hassle they are the sort of supplier that will tell me that instead of spinnin BS.

[4agte]

for sure

i meant ive heard from certain auto stores that used to stock their oil that they couldnt get it from motul any more for some strange reason which he explained to me that ive now forgotte lol

but i remember him saying they were difficult to work with which didnt make sense seeing as he was selling their products........

[TooF]

wouldnt suprise me. i only get it becasue the engine builder up the road stocks it and i get just about all my gear from them.

OUCH!!!!


Sorry for not replying earlier.... yeah looks like GW dont have something directly to suit the S2000, so i stand corrected

In any case, there are still a few other products to select from. There is a specific oil they recommend for engines that require low viscosity oils.

What's wrong with a 10W40? http://www.gulfwestern.com.au/products.asp?id=147

Honda specifies you can use a 10w40 if you live in colder climates but its reccomended to use a 10w30

im happy to follow hondas directions

for the mr2 tho i would be happy to try the gulf western if they work out to be a decent ammount cheaper than mobil

Can supply 20L of any of the mobil oils (and 5L bottles). Well priced too. I just bought a 5L bottle of 10w30 and 15w50 from them.

cool, I know where they are too. So is it the bulk price at 20L?

[monkeymajik]

From what the guy told me, it depended on what one you were getting eg.

The 15w50 is the same price per litre in 5L bottles as it is in the 20L drums.
The 10w30 is much cheaper per litre when you buy it in the 20L drum.

The 10w30 was $10-20 cheaper than what I saw it for at ripco/supercheap/autobarn. Cheaper again if you buy 20L of it.
