root_galaxy Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 So I went to Walmart to pick up some T6 and the only one that I could find was 05-40W diesel, feel like such a noob but is this the correct one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJr Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 T6 5w-40 is the one!! You have a LGT I assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wurkenman Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 You will be fine running diesel oil in your car. If you woke up today, you have another chance to do it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BENCOB Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Pfft.. screw the T6, that's for Diesel engines. I haz turbo so I put turbine engine oil in mine Well said neighbor! Besides, t6 is for 6 cyls right, isn't that too much for a b4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJr Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Read more into the emoticon vs. the actual text of that post.. You guys are too much:lol:. It's been years since I started putting T6 in my car. After I read the post I thought diesel yeah, no, I actually went out to the garage to see if the gallon jug said diesel on it anywhere of course it didn't. Does say heavy duty though. Just use it, my motor loves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
06lgtspecb Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Just a heads up if you have a menards locally it's on sale for 17.99 so you'll save a nice chunk of change. Plus you can also send if for a 5$ rebate if your bottle has it on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallyworld also has the mobil 0w40 on sale pretty often, not too shabby at all. It comes in a 5qt jug too! Always nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

specialB Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Haha nice, I just started using Rotella in my old Jag last oil change. The valvetrain is soo much quieter since I made the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I run the diesel (15W40) with no issues. Wouldn't run it through winter though.

NWSPECB Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Both standard and T6 are designed for diesel. Most use the T6 - 5w-40 only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I thought they were both for diesel, but I wasn't sure. I've run both and you can't beat it for the price. -Brandon 2007 Chevrolet Suburban LT3 1981 Chevrolet C10 LWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody480 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 This thread had me entirely confused with all of the sarcasm. So is the blue jug of rotella t6 the correct stuff or does it make any difference. Because I've used it the last two oil changes and recommended the use of it to a few of my buddies due to it being praised on the forum.
