Motor oil expiry date?
Just found a stash of motor oil in my garage that I had bought some years back. Does anyone know whether motor oil has a use by date? It's mobil 1 fully synthetic (if it makes any difference)
Thought to use it on my next oil change for my other car There was no expiry date on the bottles. |

Just check it is LL04, LL01, or worst case at least LL98 approved. If it is none of those, might be best to take a wide berth from pouring it in the 135.
AFAIK motor oil does age, but not in the same way as used/contaminated motor oil does.

Cool thanks, I should have been clearer that I meant it for my Honda which will soon be replaced once my 135i arrives end of March...
