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.

 Average synthetic oil... May 16, 2010

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...

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!
Noticable improvement!!! September 16, 2009

I was having some overheating trouble that took almost two weeks to figure out. After a couple of thing's didn't fix it I found out about this stuff and it's cooling properties. So I added the Purple Ice to my coolant and it worked immediately(I could tell because I could drive further before overheating) so then I replaced my motor oil and transmission fluid with the stuff, again able to go farther. Once I got the problem fixed, I now have better shifting, more HP, and my engine runs cooler than it ever has! I believe this stuff helped prevent my engine from blowing up while it was overheating!

I have been using the motor oil Royal Purple Street Synthetic Motor Oil - SAE 5w30, Quart Bottle, Pack of 12 for 3 different vehicles I have owned since discovering it in 1996. It is phenomenal product that lives up to its billing better than any product of the same type on the market. If you want to protect your engine; only have to change your oil about once every 5k miles, get this oil! Expensive you say? What is your engine worth in comparison? This stuff works and not only their motor oil, but transmission, radiator.. all their product are FAR and away superior to ANYTHING else on the market. For my money, time, and power boost that this product provides to my truck, nothing goes in my crank case but this oil. Buy it, you will not be disappointed!!
