Popular engine oil, matching Autobarn, should price match at supercheap too

Cashrewards is applicable on this, for the lucky ones with $10 bonus, this is a good pick at 39.99 (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/770936)
CamelCamelCamel.
can get 5W40 from autobarn and for cheaper too
Shouldnt be paying $30+ for a 5L oil bottle
not sure 5W40 and 5W30 different?
generally higher number on right(operating temperature), or a lower number on left (winter number) is okay (your milage may vary depending on your car and engine)
For me both are suitable 30, and 40 operating temperature viscosity
unsure why you got neg'd, totally true.
In my case, I've been using 5W30 for 2 years now, and my oil consumption is kinda getting outta hand. I'm looking to move to a 4W or 10W40 to see if I can curb that consumption.
There is a whole lot about oil film strength or resistance to shearing from the stresses in the engine. It's all very interesting and the main take away I find is "thinner isn't always better!"
How is it cheaper at Autoarn? Same price on website?
might be getting confused with Gulf Western 5W-40

Oils ain't oils
What oil you using. Decent ones are around 40
Right now car has GW 5W-30.
IMO GW, Castrol, Valvoline, Penrite are all decent brands dude
GW is a budget oil brand.
dont forget supercheap price beat if that is closer to your location
Man this was $37 in December, i hope we get eals like that again.
