Where'd All the Motor Oil Go??

[wayoflife]

Try Home Depot too if you need more. Nobody ever buys oil there and they always have it.

LOL - I can honestly say that I never knew Home Depot sold motor oil

On you way out of Home Depot check the grocery store automotive aisle. Always fully stocked.

My dad is doing work for someone just retired from Oil Industry. Manufacturers are out of additives required for diesel, weeks away from being out for hydraulic fluid, and similar with regular motor oil. Said Mobil1 is already out.

This is just getting to be so frickin stupid!

I scored a few 5 quart jugs of the Pennzoil Platinum in 0W 20 yesterday, but we are pretty rural so not high demand, and the oil section of the parts store was looking pretty thin. The guy at the counter said their oil shipments are pretty random right now, and usually they get one brand one weight at a time, I must have lucked out as they had just got a Pennzoil shipment.

Yup went to Oreillys yesterday and saw the same thing. Shelves were almost completely empty.

Shell notified me they have issues with the additives needed for the oil. Right now they are focusing on bulk oil and not doing packaged. so if you need an oil change you may have to let a shop stocking bulk do it for you. Chrysler has restricted most packaged oil , but bulk we have had no issues thus far.

I am glad I stocked up a few years back when Oreilly had a big sale on some shell stuff. I was annoyed that I lugged it between 2 home moves. But, it's paying off now. lol

 

[jeeeep]

was at Costco today, their entire automotive aisle was down to 1/2 of one side and no motor oil

I need to check my stores… I’m about due for a change on both my vehicles

 

[Seahawkfan]

First it was TP, then eggs, then water bottles, next was paper towels. Now Motor Oil! Fuxk it...Tesla, here I come!

You forgot (Change)

 

[obrianmcc]

I’m so tired of this crap

ditto!

 

[trailraider]

We can't order or get any packaged T6 5w40 right now. SMH

I have at least one of my Jeeps and my Duramax in need of an oil change soon. I keep looking for oil but the shelves are still bare. The whole thing is just so frustrating.

For the duramax do you have a medium duty shop for Isuzu around? They will have GM grade 15w-40 since they mainly have GM engines in them

Just changed my F250, 4 gallons T6 Rotella at my local Home Depot! Can’t find 5W20 Mobil though.

Fuckin Russians!! Haha!!

I’ve been able to get Amsoil without issues for both gas and diesel.

 

[benatc1]

That’s so annoying, Have you tired Amazon? I couldn’t find what I need for my 06 ram once and ordered on there.

 

[jeeeep]

JL needs an oil change, can't find it anywhere.

May have to jiffy lube it and overpay

 

[MTG]

It's Obama's fault.

Finally hit ~5K miles on the jeep. I was going to change the oil this weekend, maybe I'll just take it to Jeep instead?
