I'm running the 15w-40 Amsoil Signature Diesel in my Corvair air cooled engine in my 22 foot RV. Very heavy duty use for a 3 liter engine from the '60's, and it performs perfectly, along with the Amsoil 75w90 Severe Gear in my differential, and Amsoil ATF in my Powerglide transmission. I use nothing but Amsoil products in my 17 Prius, the 16 Subaru Forester Turbo, And every car I have owned in the last 15 years, and will continue to do so.

Amsoil is a great oil. I personally change oil in 8 automobiles and light trucks. Also 1 motorcycle and two lawnmowers. My highest mileage is 200250 miles. I can tell you that Amsoil and their filters will do a superior job. The only down side is the shipping charges. Amsoil is priced about the same as Mobile 1, but the charges mean you pay top dollar.

I use this product for two reasons. It offers me excellent protection and performance in
my Diesel engines and because the durability is so good I have flexibility on my service
schedule. My schedule may change and the weather here in New England doesn't always cooperate
and these products let me service at my convenience.

I have changed all fluids to AMSOIL. The oil viscosity is superior to any on the market. I do the recommended oil change to may 2500HD Duramax. Even after a 10,000 mile oil change the lubrication in the oil is still as if it were brand new. AMSOIL is the best to run in any motor. Give it a shot you have nothing to loose with using AMSOIL products.

I really appreciate the ability to use the "My Garage" to identify the products and capacities listed for each of my vehicles. That with Amsoil's excellent write ups on their products gives me a piece of mind that I have the right fluids for each vehicle.
This oil has all the additives my old truck's diesel needs to stay running for another 250,000 miles.

This is the only oil I have used in my 2008 Chevy 3500 HD truck since the first oil change. At this time it is not a high mileage truck and generally change the oil due to time limitation and not mileage. However when the truck is being used it is under somewhat severe conditions and I trust Amsoil to take care of it. I will not at this time consider any other engine lubricant for this truck.

Been using the oil since the vehicle had reached 25000 miles. Now it has just short of 120,000 miles. The oil lasts one year. I notice no oil comsumsion between oil changes. Use the truck to pull trailers beside just normal driving. Also belive that the oil aids in cold starts during the winter months. Starting in sub zero weather has not been an issue as todate.
Reviewed by Mac:
I switched from the standard Rotella 15W-40 about 1.5 years ago to the Amsoil 15W-40, and was the best thing I could have done! Though some of the new diesels are rated for 7500 mile oil changes, when using Rotella I still changed it every 3k miles. With the new emissions on these trucks, the regular oil doesn't last near
as long. After only 3k miles, the oil was almost as thin as water, and the lubricity was nearly gone.
After switching to Amsoil, I can go the full 7500 miles and then some (with oil analysis), and the oil still feels like new. I have since started using Amsoil to replace all the fluids in my truck.

Amazing. I have noticeable temperature drops. I run it past the recommended oil change intervals, although that is not recommended. Combined with the Wix filter and it starts easy, runs cooler, and longer intervals. Not a single bad thing to say.

My brother has owned an F250 Diesel for over 10 years. He told me that his truck performs the same as it did 10 years ago and he has had no fuel injector or motor problems. His friends have had those kinds of problems with their trucks. The difference he said is that he has been using AMSoil in this engine and transmission, and his friends did not. So when I bought my GMC 2500HD Diesel, I bought AMSoil for my truck. Their record is impressive. If I can trust my brother, who can I trust?

I have been using Amsoil in my diesel towing vehicles sense 2004, when I purchased my first diesel GMC 2500 pickup. I tow a 10,000 pound Airstream Travel Trailer 10,000 to 15,000 miles a year, and change my oil one time each year. I have used an Amsoil Duai Filter System with the Bypass
filter. I change the Full Flow Filter two times per year, and the Bypass filter one time. I got my oil analyzed each year just before my oil change for six years. I never had the lab recommend I change the oil. I put 125,000 miles om my first Amsoil truck, then sold it to a friend in 2014. The oil I am reviewing was bought for that friend, that is stil towing a Travel Trailer and changing the oil like I did.
I now have a 2015 Chevy 3500 Diesel set up just like my 2004 GMC was for Amsoil and dual filters. The order for this oil also included the oil and filters for my new truck. I look forward to getting the same results with this truck doing the same job.

I use Amsoil in my 2015 F-250. This oil holds up under the stresses that come with running 11 hrs. a day 5 days a week in commercial use. My 2015 already has 155k miles on it thanks to Amsoil, without any engine problems. I have tried other oils, even Royal Purple Duralec, but none compare to the 15-40's strengths when under the high temperatures of Summer in the south and the cold temperatures of the north in Winter.
