Any Penrite 10 Tenths Oil Sales Coming Up?

[Wonky]

Like many people for years I've been using Castrol Edge 10w60 oil (at 7,500km intervals with new filter).

The way I use my car the engine never gets hot enough for sustained periods to really justify 10w60 so I asked my (very respected) tuner who suggested Penrite 10 Tenths 10w40.

Problem is like Edge 10w60 it's quite expensive unless on sale. Eg. currently $74.99 at and Autobarn. Repco $79 normally, $72 for RACV members.

Therefore, just like the Castrol Edge thread, this one would like to know of any Penrite 10 Tenths fully synth sales coming up please.

Gazza, don't know if you have Bursons in Vic? Cause I buy off them in bulk. Best value in 10 or 20L drums. I just bought a 10 tenths 10w40 in a new enviro 20L pack for under $200, not bad value.

Yep, plenty of Bursons down here though 20L drum would be a problem for me.

Gazza they actually now come in an enviro bladder pack with a ****/Tap. What I did is filled 4 x 5L regular clean bottles & labelled for easy use.

I actually bought a couple of 6 litre Nulon 10-40 Fully Synthetic
the other day from Supercheap as it's on special for only $34.70 per 6 litre bottle.

AutoOne have 25% off store wide this weekend, not sure if there's one near you or not? If RRP is around $80, it would probably be about $60?

The price of 10w-60 is becoming just Stupid!!!... the other week Penrite 10w-60 full RRP was like $89 for 5 liters, totally crazy, not going to happen any longer...

In the past usually got it for around $70 - $75 only on special.

Last oil change, which was just last week for me, I switched to Castrol 5w-30 Full Synthetic, which was only $48 on special for 5 liters. Usually around $60 full rrp...

As per my OEM owners manual, it recommends 5W or 10W for the first number (when cold) and 30 for the second number (when hot).

With Castrol 10w-60 I was getting random cold start lifter tap, which would disappear after about 10 minutes of engine running.

Had been running Castrol 10w-60 for ages, and was over the cold start lifter tap noise, which was becoming a lot more frequent..

Switched to Penrite 10w - 60 previous oil change, no more cold start lifter tap noise, totally gone... go figure...


So far have been running the Castrol 5w - 30 for past week, zero cold start lifter tap noise running the thinner 5W oil, all good.

Being thinner 5w, it'll flow better on cold start.

It's only a daily driver...
