Shell Rotella T6 15W40

ballbreaker · 07-19-2022, 11:54 AM

Having trouble getting this oil in Canada. Going to North Dakota in a few weeks. Any one know where to get it in Fargo/Grand Forks area. Thanks in advance.

most napa stores sell rotella oil.not sure about the T6 grade. if there is a Tractor Supply store in Fargo or Grand Forks they should have it there also check out any Menards store.

Napa and Parts Source sell Rotella T4 or T5 same as oil mart and walmart but not the T6. Also tried Fleet Farm in Fargo and no go either. Maybe check to see if the T5 is jaso/ M2. Hard getting the specs on some products. Will keep trying and looking. Thanks for the reply rozie.

thanks to plumber63 and alwhite00 for their input. Much appreciated. Thanks to naysayer as well. I will have to check Amazon.ca. I couldn't find it before.

Not sure why, but Walmarts in my area haven't had any Rotella of any type for a long time.

Thanks Tortuga for the input. As you say Walmart in my area of Canada has lots of T5 and T4. Asked about T6 at Walmart and Canadian Tire and they have no knowledge of when or if T6 will be coming in . On a side note checked out T5 and it doesn't have the Jaso M1/M2 rating however the T4 does and seemed to be plentiful at various stores around here. Talked to a few mechanics and they have indicated that the T4 would provide all the protection that I need for the engine and wet clutch in the 15w40 diesel oil. If I was driving a ninja or some kind of sport bike they would recommend synthetic 10w40 for the high revving engines. Some T6 is available on Amazon.Ca for some boxes of 3/1gallon containers. I am thinking on the T4 and trying it out. Thanks for the replies from everyone.

Tortuga · 08-21-2022, 02:22 PM

Maybe things are loosening up. My Walmart got Rotella T4, T5, and some straight 30 weight T-something, but no T6. T5, the semi synthetic isn't JASO marked as far as I can see. So, if you want T4, come on down to southern Arizona and get it.

ballbreaker · 08-21-2022, 06:22 PM

Thanks for the reply Tortuga. T6 rotella is starting to show up here but not in 15w40. I was able to pick up some T4 15w40 rotella this week at Princess Auto. A little closer than Arizona LOL Thanks for the tip though.

FYI- I was just able to order two gallons of T6 for $24.73 each, plus tax, free shipping, from Walmart. It is said to be delivered 9/19. We shall see.

Tortuga · 09-15-2022, 07:34 PM

Well, I guess Walmart has T6. I just got notice that it's shipped been shipped. I don't know about Canada, but give Walmart a try, eh?

ballbreaker · 09-23-2022, 09:01 PM

It is available at Walmart in the US. Saw it in Minnesota. Got home and found it at Canadian tire here as well. Update on my last statement. There is no 15W40 Rotella T6 at walmart or canadian tire
