Can anyone point me in the right direction to purchase some Delvac 1 for my TDI. Being new to this machine I can say without question it is FANTASTIC and want to keep it that way.

Everyplace I have looked (truck stops ect) no one knows anything about Delvac 1

Thanks

Get the yellow pages for a large city near you. Look in the section labeled Oils. Then find ads that have a big Mobil logo and try to find one that is for a distributor. They most likely will stock Delvac 1, and if you call them, they will gladly tell you who they distribute the Delvac to that might be closer to where you live.

There is also a distributor in Worcester, but the name escapes me now. If you can't find them in the yellow pages, Email me and I'll try to dig it up.

Casey Petroleum in Needham sold me a case last month...I was out the door for $104. That's the only way they sell it.

You can also telephone Mobil directly and they will help anyone in the USA track down the closest Mobil distributor. The oil is generally difficult to acquire and the retail outlets don't stock because they say it is too expensive.

I went to Casey about 6 months ago and had the same experiences as listed above, however, the stuff I bought was the older stuff, CG-4, anyone able to get CH-4 from Casey lately?

The Delvac 1 I purchased from Casey last month is still CG4 rated. The bottles don't say anything about CH4.

I don't think this is a big deal. As someone else said at this site, the DELVAC 1 is the closest oil available in the USA to meeting all of VWs specs. We'll just have to be happy with it for now.
