Product Description |
|
SAE 5w30 Motor Oil is recommended for use in all fourcycle gasoline engines and both twocycle and fourcycle diesel applications including cars, trucks, motor homes, RVs, boats, commercial fleet and stationary industrial diesel engines. Royal Purple Motor Oil is a tough, long life, high performance oil that delivers superior protection and enhanced performance to gasoline and diesel engines. It gains its performance advantages from a blend of synthetic oils plus Royal Purple's proprietary, synthetic Synerlec additive technology. Synerlec additive technology greatly reduces engine wear, including ring, cylinder and bearing wear. It is extremely tenacious, adheres to engine surfaces and remains after shutdown, which provides protection upon initial startup. Royal Purple Motor Oils are compatible with other mineral and synthetic motor oils. Royal Purple's motor oils are API certified and will not void new car warranties. Royal Purple recommends waiting until the manufacturer's first scheduled oil change or a minimum of 2,000 miles in new gasoline engines before using Royal Purple. Allow 8,000 to 10,000 miles before use in diesel engines. |

Excellent Quality Oil |
|
As an ASE Certified technician, I understand the (usually unmet) needs of typical passenger vehicles; I would venture to say that Royal Purple exceeds even the most severe service requirements for any application. Worth the extra money, Royal Purple is a product that I would recommend to anyone without hesitation. I changed all the fluids in my 1992 Jeep Cherokee XJ (4.0L HO) over to Royal Purple, and the smoothness and power increase startled me on the first drive. I'm certain that the engine, which was in terrible shape at the time, only lasted as long as it did (220k mi before I crashed it) because of the exceptional quality of RP oil. Now, in my 1999 XJ, I won't use any other fluid. Royal Purple offers a simply amazing product. |

A little more expensive than most, but great oil |
I have only driven my 2008 GTI 1,000 miles since changing my oil, so I can't give a "glowing" review yet...
However, I have many of the technicians whom I work with that swear by Royal Purple. I have noticed (or am imagining) a small gain in average fuel economy since my oil change and would like to think it has something to do with the lubricating prowess of the oil!
I may update the review after a few thousand more miles to give more details. Can't beat the price on Premier-shopping! So, if you are looking for great synthetic oil...give Royal Purple a chance. |

Average synthetic oil... |
I bought 6 quarts of this for my 2005 Chevy Tahoe 5.3 liter V8 (56K miles) after reading all of the high reviews and buying into all of the hype, but after trying it out for about 1K miles, I'm not impressed.
Don't get me wrong, this oil does exactly what it is supposed to do; lubricates, cleans, and protects the engine. But as far as delivering more horsepower; higher-torque; and a cooler running engine, I saw absolutely no difference over the CONVENTIONAL oil I had just switched from. Running conventional oil, my Tahoe saw 15.8 MPG, and an internal engine temperature consistently between 201-205 degrees F. The temp and MPG after 1K miles of running Royal Purple? 15.7 MPG and 201-205 degrees F. I have also noticed no difference in engine sound or torque as many others have mentioned in reviews.
I honestly believe that many people experience dramatic results with Royal Purple only because they also change out their coolant, differential oil, transmission oil, and air filters at the same time.
Bottom line is that I ran 6 quarts of 5W30 RP with a brand new K&N filter for 1K miles after switching from 50K miles of conventional oil, and saw absolutely no difference.
Also, in the weeks since I purchased RP, I've seen many of their "comparison test" videos on you tube, and the way the conduct all of their tests is laughable. They change variables so many times throughout each test that it becomes pointless to compare. I even saw one where they ran 10W30 conventional and 5W30 RP as a direct comparison. They clearly think we are all idiots.
Save your money. I will be switching to Mobil 1 next oil change due to their lower cost and solid reputation. I tried the "boutique" oil. Never again.
All of you RP zombies and employees can feel free to bombard me with your negative comments... |

Noticeable difference |
In the process of doing my 60K service on a 2004 Mazda MPV, I decided to switch to synthetic. Hands down Royal Purple gets the best praise and reviews so thought I'd give it a try.
I was amazed that I actually noticed a difference after changing the oil and replacing with synthetic in terms of fuel economy (about ~2mpg improvement). Performance is slightly noticeably better but I also replaced the air filter, spark plugs and tranny fluid at the same time so not sure I can say the oil alone helped there.
My only complaint is that I failed to realize what a great cost Premier-shopping has for this item. I ended up paying $8.99/qt at the local Schucks and won't make that mistake next time! |

ROYAL PURPLE LUBES ARE GREAT |
Tried the RP MAX ATF first, awesome, then the DIFFERENTIAL 75W-140 the mid-grade and it stopped all whining noises (WHINING IS WEAR!!) in my TOYOTA TRUCK rearend, then the RP 5w-30 oil but prefer the 10w's from RP in my older vehicles.
Better than Mobil One, Better than most Castrol Synthetics too.
5w-50 Castrol Syntec is my favorite for very powerful cars but RP 10w-40 is close if not equal. Owning many cars makes the RP 5w-30 the best choice for rarely driven vehicles, even feels slipperier than other synthetic oils! |
