Free delivery with $99+
Or on Sparesbox eBay website $51.95 free delivery if only buying 1
Don't forget Sparesbox 5% cash back with Shopback and Cash Rewards
Oh there are a few brands but yes expensive but only worth buying if cheaper than the dealer. Honda dealer charge around $55inc gst for just under 5L for genuine Honda Leo oil.
Repco doing penrite 0w20 for $45 that's already cheap compare to the usual price
I think there could be more promotions not sure on cost
There is actually 0w08 and 0w16 for hybrids and electric. If the world is heading towards that then maybe less demand for other oils. But not these few decades I reckon.
Bloody hell I use 10w60. Whats the benefit of 0w20?
Thin…
Good for small engine doing local grocery run in snail pace traffic. Poor engine might not even get warmed properly when the trip is done.
Could say the same about the select few cars that use 10W60
Better lubrication properties in higher temperatures.
Modern engines made to meet very stringent fuel usage target standards use 0w20
Hhmmm I wonder if this can be paired with the Sparesbox promo codes received in the past…
Can't see why not unless they expired
The valvoline $20 voucher is only claimable if you have a promotional magnet or at least show a picture of this. Not exactly sure where you can get them except by attending a major event which are not happening now. So where to get the magnet? Otherwise cannot claim voucher.
Magnet not required even if they ask for it
Has worked
Yes and stack with 8% off supercheap gift card and you are set
Sparesbox also lower their price today too to $47.45
Cheers for the reminder about the gift cards.
With regards to this deal, $49.95/$51.95 (eBay) is Sparesbox's regular price and the cashback promo runs until the end of May. I recommend waiting until Sparesbox has a sale or is a part of eBay's 15~20% off promos, which is usually every other month. That is, if you don't need it urgently.
They had a $25 off one during Easter if you buy over $125 and 20% off in March.
I dunno if they gonna have one in April
Hey if you buy from supercheap and haven't used, they refund you.
How many bottles you getting?
Those 15-20% ebay are rare now since corona
But we'll see
@Junk Sifter: oh nice… time to refund all the oil I bought from the shops hahaha
do you know if they would provide a tax invoice for ebay sparesbox purchases?
@Poor Ass: still cheaper my way hehe

$47.45 price match at supercheap and they bought with 10% off supercheap gift card = $42.70 - $20 cash back $22.70
vs
if buy from ebay $51.95 x 85% = $44.15 - $20 cash back = $24.15 x 1% cash back = $23.90
@Poor Ass: Love it, mate. Well done. Don't forget Supercheap 1.5% cashback.
I think eBay may still be the better option if you have some gift cards bought from 4% cashback off AusPost, with free delivery!
Though, personally I'm getting some 5W-30.
@Junk Sifter: Ya just a shame cashback not available for Supercheap giftcards and I never tried price matching online for Supercheap. Only instore, much easier but even they say price best really is a price match
I have a Subaru Outback 2015 with the 2.5L engine. The car's manual specify that the viscosity be 0W20, and be GF-4 or GF-5 certified. This engine oil seems to be the correct viscosity and is also GF-5 according to Valvoline website.
However, sparesbox and supercheap tell me that it's not compatible with my car when I enter the car details, which makes me a bit paranoid.
Does anyone know if it's just the website that's wrong?
Yes website is not accurate
Ah, thank you! :-)
they never update it properly and always recommend heavier oils most the time which is inaccurate
every subaru I've seen done at dealer uses 0w20 and they charge like $80+ every time
Great find! 0w20 tends to be expensive and only offered by a few brands. Do you think 0w20 oil will get cheaper in a few years time? I wonder if more companies will make 0w20 and if competition will bring down the price.
