Rotella 15w40 T4, T5, or T6??? - Bob is the Oil Guy
WEBOct 21, 2021 — The only issues I have being an OTR driver is there seems to be a huge price difference in getting the T5 and T6 oil changes compared to T4. It seems to average about $175-$225 more for the higher grade synthetics compared to T4.
Shell Rotella T6 or T5 | Cummins Diesel Forum
WEBAug 22, 2022 — Walmart wants $55 for one gallon of T6 which is price gouging to the fullest. I'm just gonna run T5 is I'm cool with doing that. I’ve been running T5 for 200k and nothings blown up. T5 is a synthetic blend anyway, you’ll be fine switching.

WEBDec 3, 2011 — Rotella T5 upmarketed product (semi-syn) Rotella T6 top-tier market position (full syn, if you're not going to gag on the definition of the word "synthetic") I use Triple Protection; it is a conventional base stock and JASO-MA/2 rated by Shell. Shell also rates their T6 at that same level. They do NOT rate the T5 products as MA/2.

Rotella T5 and T6 in 10w30 | BobIsTheOilGuy
WEBDec 20, 2021 — Oct 10, 2023. #1. I was surprised to learn that Rotella T6 is now being offered in 10W30, and the new T6 jug has a pic of a motorcycle on it too. Oddly, despite having a motorcycle pic on the front of the T6 jug, there are no JASO MA letters on the back! As I shared recently, the T5 10W30 recently added …
Can Rotella T4 and T5 mix? | Cummins Diesel Forum
WEBSep 8, 2017 — Can Rotella T4 and T5 mix? Have a trip in the morning and noticed the oil level on my dipstick was at "ADD" so I ran to O'Reilly's and grabbed Rotella T5. The shop receipt from the truck's last oil change indicated T15-40-1 was used, which is the product code for Rotella T4 conventional. I just put in 2.5 quarts of T5-15-40-1, which is Rotella ...

Shell Rotella T-5 in a bike - Bob is the Oil Guy
WEBOct 1, 2008 — The bike is a 2007 Honda VFR800 Interceptor. Honda manual and shop manual both show 10W-30 as the "preferred" oil, with the typical 10W-40, 15W-40 and 20W-50 being "acceptable" clause. Most of the new Honda products now call for 10W-30. I have been using more T-6 than anything else with good results, but I …
Rotella 15w40 T4 & T6 in Motorcycles | BobIsTheOilGuy
WEBDec 20, 2021 — I'm starting this thread to compare the two flavors of Rotella 15w40 in motorcycles. Apparently the synthetic T6 was only available in 5w40 for many years, so if you wanted a Rotella 15w40, you were looking at the T4 "Dino" oil. I've been very happy using T4 15w40 in my Nighthawk 750 (air cooled inline 4) and my Shadow 750 (liquid cooled V-Twin ...
