    10w40 Durablend is fine if your engine is getting a little old. Price is decent and it's easy to find in the average auto store. Apparently it scored pretty good in a 'shear' test a while ago. I drove Syd-Brisbane with the 10w40 Durablend oil.

    I have also tried 5w40 Valvoline Synpower. no complaints.

    If you're burning some oil with 10w30 or 5w30, there's nothing wrong with trying a Xw40 from a decent manufacturer.

    what is the sheer test?
    also looking at the 10w-50 HPR10 full syn of penrite and 5-40 HPR5 full syn of penrite the penrite stuff seems better due the price its less then valvoline stuff not sure what to use.

    Fcuk me! Since when has valvoline durablend become so damn expensive! And that is extremely good price for HPR 5.

    Laugh all you want boys but I bet many of you were also shocked to find valvoline more expensive than penrite.

    I'd take penrite over valvoline anyday of the week! I'll be sticking to my HRP 10

    I remember back when I used to work at supercheap auto magnatec was $28 and durablend was $26, penrite HPR 5 was $38 and mobil 1 was $45. What's the chances valvoline upped their prices after that sheer test was released?
