Just ordered 11 quarts from gmpartsgiant.com. Five minutes later I got an email saying my order was cancelled.
“Your order has been voided because of the following reason(s): The ordered part(s) have been discontinued (no longer available) and/or is backordered with no ETA date by the manufacture.” Hrm. I placed an order with gmpartsdirect.com ( fingers crossed ) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Arg! gmpartsdirect says on backorder for GM with no expected ETA. Guess I'll be cancelling that order now, too.

All it means if one brings a Vette or a Camaro to a GM dealer they will now fill it with Mobil 1 0w40 vs generic 5w30. And charge MUCH more for an oil change, regardless whether one tracks the car or not. |

I think I will use currently available one until 1500miles. I can change to new one m1 0w-40 later with no consequences right??? Only if I get on somewhere. |

I need an oil change and dont know what to use. Local dealer cant get the new stuff. Everyone else is B/O. This is frustrating. I guess I will have to do the Mobil 1 dexos 5w-30?

If you will track on this oil then run 5W40 Motul x-clean 8100. You can find it on amazon. If you aren't tracking the car, the 5w-30 is plenty for street and spirited drives.

I would stay away from Valvoline.
MOBILE 1 is what i have run for decades with zero issues.

I went to my local dealer and I was able to purchase the 1 liter version. They had 124 liters in stock.
