Top Dog Plus and Penrite Enviro on special..
This weeks special ay Supercheap 2MAY24 till 12 May 24, I see Gulf Western Top Dog Global Plus Engine Oil 10W-40 20 Litre Drums for $115.99 ......... its CK4 so ticks the box...... semi syn or full syn I think is irrelevant really.

Penrite Enviro+ 10W-40 Engine Oil 10L kegs at Repco for $108, fully syn and CJ4 ..................... https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids...rite%20Enviro+
So certainly time to stock up.

So at $5.80 a litre it is very tempting compared to $10.80 a litre. (Last oil change I paid over $13 a litre for the Penrite from "not so" Supercheap Auto.
I'll be dropping in to the local Repco though for my old favorite being I might even get the additional 5% RACQ membership discount as well...

Used the Penrite 10w-40 this time....MUCH quieter than the 5w-40....some Members had stated they also noted the 'noise' change when using the 5w-40.....certainly makes a difference.
Geeeezus those prices are awesome !!!!.
Paid around $156 for 2x 5lts of the Penrite 10w-40.
Will see if there is a REPCO Store here....away for the weekend.THANKS Drover.

The 10w40 Penrite Enviro made a huge difference in the blowby caught in the Provent in my 2010 WH GC diesel .Much quieter also. Will put it in my WK 2012 GC next oil change!

You have to remember that Supercheap will match the price if its cheaper elsewhere, just have to show them a current catalogue listing and they will match the price, paper listing or on your phone, I have used it many times when Repco or Autobarn have something cheaper ............... added bonus is Supercheap will drop the price in a week, usually lower than the others so I end up with a credit .......
