Completed an oil change this afternoon and as I’m finishing up, I noticed that the mfg date on the bottom of the containers is mostly from 2017, with one as old as 2016. Oil is Shell Rotella T1 strait weight 40. Should be pretty common oil. Kinda pissed, stuff isn’t cheap and I expected NAPA to have more current inventory.
So a couple questions.
Does oil deteriorate in unopened containers? How old is too old?
