Oil in Omsk
 

Anybody know where I can score 4qts of SD 15w50 in Omsk

We've been in Russia for a couple of weeks and have been trying to find 15W-40 semi synthetic oil. It appears to not be available at all, so your 15-50 is likely to be equally unobtainable. :(

We have been able to find 15W-40 mineral oil, but not semi synthetic. We have had to settle for 10W-40 semi synthetic for the Land Rover (just changed the oil today).

Is the oil for a bike or a car? I had no problems finding 10w60 synthetic Motul and Liquimoli in Russia and Kazakhstan. I know this probably isn't very helpful info... but if you can locate a dealer or shop that is the "official" dealer of the oil brand you want, they can probably get it within a few days.

I usually google "motul + country/city" when i am trying to find plan my oil changes.

For further comfort for motorcyclists not to be put off by this: I never had any problem in any city in russia the size of Omsk to get fully synthetic top drawer motorcycle oils of 10w40 15w50 and even 10w60.

If you cant find anything yourself, just flag down a local motorcyclist and ask them where to get it in town.
