oil change, which oil is this?

by **newroc** » Sat Feb 18, 2006 1:08 pm

just had my first oil change at the dealership. Receipt says 5quarts 00279-PMP40 Mobil at 1.70 each. I asked cashier what type oil they put in, 5w30 or 10w30, she had no idea. Service advisor didn't know either, told me it is written on the cap, what cap? Guy who handed me the car keys didn't know also. So, besides finding the mechanic who did the job, there's no other way to find out what they put in my car. The "next oil change" sticker only has the date and mileage.

This is a Toyota delearship I'm talking about. So, what is this 00279-PMP40 Mobil ?

I would get another oil change somewhere else. At 1.70 a pop there is no way that is synthetic , espeacially at a dealership, thats some cheap ass oil.

it's normal Mobil, not mobil 1.

depending where you live, it's either 5w-30 or 10w-30
