I know oils have been brought up alot in club cj. But my mate suggested i take a look at this seller on Ebay. I thought i would ask for some opinions.
http://stores.ebay.com.au/GL-Lubricants ... 1417179013
The site above is a ebay seller who sells mobil 1 Esp oil range now the 2 things that caught my attention with this is its cheaper then 5w-30 mobil 1 i buy from super cheap and the fact that the bottle says its guaranteed for 15000miles. The 15000 miles or 25000 plus km is something that i'm yet to see over here.
Just thought i would ask for some opinions on this subject!

buying some parts on ebay or wherever i feel is ok....
but the oil in your engine is its life blood if something goes wrong is some guy on ebay going to help out with warranty or cost of rebuilding your engine i know mitsubishi is not going to come to the party if you buy the oil from repco supercheap etc they are going to stand behind their products and have warranty procedures in place and insurance if it comes to that.
i may be wrong but the right oil from the right supplier is cheap when it comes to peace of mind.

I totally agree with what your saying that's why i have no problem spending the money on mobil 1 5w30 for my car. But i probably should have explained where i'm coming from. The chances of oil going wrong from a major company like shell or mobil is like winning the lottery so im not to worried about the product. Im more interested in the benefits that these products may provide. Both the shell and mobil products that i've bought up are deemed suitable for my lancer in the states. Im especially interested in the 0w30 oil and the fuel saving and long life claims.
Anyways im putting it out there. If anybody has used these products please speak up

yeah i dont use these products i do use full synthetic oil ,i just dont know that anywhere in australia in a lancer it would warrant using a zero weight oil, as for the mileage they could give me a 30000 mile guarantee and call me a little strange but i would still change my oil every 5000 klms but then thats just me
