Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel 5w40 in Virginia

Has anyone had any luck finding this oil or Delvac 1 in Northern Virginia? E-mails to Miobil are worthless. Mobil keeps telling me that Auto Zone, Pep Boys, and Walmart should have it, but none do. Thanks in advance.

I have purchased many batches of Mobil 1 Delvac from the Walmart in Dumfries on Route 1.

Did you guys find Delvac 1 or Delvac 1300? I've seen the 1300 but that is not synthetic.

I found the dino oil, not the synthetic. I'm fine with that as my truck has only 7,000 miles right now.

Look in the yellow pages for Oil Distributors. Call them and ask if they sell the oil you're looking for. Even if they won't sell it to you, they can tell you who stocks it.

I've seen the empty shelves in Wally world where the 5w40 would go, but never have seen it show up =\ I just went with Redline 15w40 instead.

There are 2 oil distributors here in Wichita. 1 has Shell Rotella T Synthetic 5w-40 the other carries the Mobil 1 heavy duty diesel synthetic 5w-40.

The Quick Lube in the Sunoco formerly Exxon (whatever the name is!) across for Wallymart in Kingstown uses it regularly...see if they'll sell ya a case or two...and while you're there check across the street at WM, I'm pretty certain I've seen it there (Springfield Va)
