U.S. Auto industry braces for motor oil shortage...

Updated May 19, 2026, 12:09 PM ET Published May 19, 2026, 5:00 AM ET

ILMA warns of an “imminent shortage” of low viscosity grade oils, including fuel efficiency 0W-16, 0W-8 and 0W-20 — which is the most important grade's of motor oil on the market today.

It’s the go-to motor oil for newer vehicles, accounting for roughly one-third of total passenger car motor oil demand last year, according to Petroleum Trends International.

The Oil Change Fleecing of The AMERICAN Consumer Continues...

In 1997 Mr. Mike McMillan of General Motors Stated: "Extending Drain Intervals is an important issue for us. We definitely want to be the leader in Extended Oil Change Drain Intervals."

YET, in the very same year of 1997 ... European automakers started recommending 18,000 + miles between oil change intervals and that was after a decade of 9,000-miles between oil change intervals.

YET, The U.S. Big Oil Companies also offer and recommend 9,000-18,000 + mile oil change intervals in Europe, and have been for many years and have plans for increasing that to nearly 30,000 mile oil change intervals in the future. WHY NOT HERE?

BECAUSE U.S. Big Oil has operated under the Sales Volume Concept for Decades (The Shorter Oil Change Drain Intervals the More Oil They Sell the MORE PROFIT THEY MAKE.)

 1974  Mobil  1  Synthetic 25,000-Mile Oil Change Drain Interval

Mobil the king of the oil industry, introduced it's MOBIL  1  Synthetic Motor Oil. Although it's Mobil  1  Synthetic Motor Oil was initially recommended for 25,000-Miles/One Year service life. Mobil just as quickly backed off to the original equipment manufacturer's standard 3,000-Mile recommended oil change drain intervals. WHY?

So they can sell more oil more often.

 1998  General Motors Corvette Handbook said Factory Filled with Synthetic Motor Oil (Mobil  1 ) that Lasts Longer than Non Synthetic Oils.


 FAST FACT 

WHY since 1992 General Motors has REQUIRED every Corvette coming off its assembly lines be factory filled with synthetic motor oil?


BECAUSE eight Corvette engines had seized at the General Motors assembly plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Cold weather had moved in, and the thick, hard-to-pump oil did not reach the front camshaft bearings which were destroyed by lack of lubrication. At 30 degrees, incidentally, it wasn’t all that cold. It doesn’t speak well for conventional oil.


THE BOTTOM LINE: Advancements in engine and drivetrain design are now demanding more from lubrication.

 U.S. Automakers DO NOT Make Their Lubricants  

OEM Dealership PROGRAM OILS OEM Dealership Parts/Service Managers they're locked into program oils; they must use the oils recommended to them by the manufacturer or lose manufacturers' bonus money.


This is a common practice in business and is not considered collusion. The owner of the dealership receives a rebate to sell the original equipment manufacturer private-labeled premium priced (OEM)-branded lubricants.

 2005  ExxonMobil Extends Oil Change Drain Intervals to 15,000-Miles (2nd Time)

The highly competitive, $3.4 billion U.S. lubricant market has a new entry with the potential to upend the sales volume assumptions it has operated under for decades.

Following two intensive and secretive years of work, in January 2005, ExxonMobil introduced a new line of high-endurance motor oils designed to support extended oil change intervals, guaranteeing engine protection for 5,000, 7,500, or 15,000-MILES.

The lineup included:

 Mobil Clean 5000: A conventional oil with 16% more cleaning agents for 5,000-MILE intervals.

 Mobil Clean 7500: A synthetic blend with 18% more cleaning agents for 7,500-MILE intervals.

 Mobil  1  Extended Performance: A fully-synthetic formulation using the Advanced SuperSyn System for 15,000-MILE intervals.

This launch marked the first time a "major" oil company offered guaranteed performance for such long intervals, aligning with recommendations from many automobile manufacturers of the time.

AMSOIL was founded on innovation beginning with our introduction of the world's first API-qualified synthetic motor oil in 1972. By ignoring commonly accepted limitations and refusing to stop short of success, we set a new benchmark for lubricant performance. These same principles continue to guide our product development, resulting in Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil. Signature Series is not only the best oil we have ever made, it’s also better than any competitor oil we have tested. Some may claim that Signature Series is over-engineered. Perfect. It’s not for everyone. It’s for those who want the absolute best engine protection — and it delivers. An Ounce of Prevention is Worth A Pound of Cure - When Downtime Could Cost More Than Money.

QUALITY-FIRST Standard + Devoted to Protection™ = 5 Decades and Thousands of Miles Ahead of The Competition

The QUALITY-FIRST Standard in Synthetic Motor Oil for 50 + Years.  The FIRST Name in Automotive Synthetic Motor Oil Technology since 1972

AMSOIL is a privately held corporation that is able to control it's own destiny.

AMSOIL is passionate about only producing quality and innovation in its products.

QUALITY FIRST ISO 9001  and  ISO 14001 Registered • Providing Worldwide Service

While many technological advances occur in an evolutionary manner, occasionally a revolutionary technology appears on the horizon that creates startling new conditions and profound changes.

Al Amatuzio began conducting serious research in 1963. By 1966 he had formulated a synthetic motor oil and put it to use in vehicles in northern Minnesota. Throughout the late ’60s Amatuzio continued his research and development and sold commercially available synthetic oils under a variety of names. In 1970 he incorporated his own name into a commercially sold product called AMMOIL. In 1971 this product name was changed to AMZOIL and it continued to be sold commercially. The true milestone came in 1972 when AMZOIL became the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet American Petroleum Institute criteria. The new lubricant performed like no other before it. When the first can appeared on the market in 1972, it signaled the birth of an entire industry. Shortly thereafter, AMZOIL became AMSOIL and the company’s products went on to expand the boundaries of lubrication science and redefine the performance possibilities of modern machinery and engines.

"As one of a few independently owned oil companies, we've always stood apart from the big oil companies.  We maintain the freedom to formulate products based on performance, not price. We maintain the freedom to formulate products based on performance, not price. The result is a complete product line of full-synthetic lubricants that helps you push the limits of vehicle performance, power and speed."

A.J. Amatuzio, President and CEO of AMSOIL, Inc.

What the critics deemed unnecessary and ill-conceived when his company was founded is now required by many vehicle manufacturers. Because of Amatuzio, consumers have improved choices from Big Oil, their vehicles last longer and advanced automotive technologies that would have destroyed yesterday's motor oil are possible.



Trademark The FIRST in Synthetics In 1972 Introduced The Worlds FIRST API Approved 100% Full Synthetic Motor Oil

AMSOIL founder and industry pioneer Al Amatuzio built his company on the same principles that defined his career as a jet fighter squadron commander – excellence, integrity and strong leadership. In 1972, the breakthrough came. AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil, the result of years of research and inspired by aerospace technology, became the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet American Petroleum Institute (API) service requirements. It outperformed conventional oils on all counts, signaling a new age in lubrication science. Today, virtually every other motor oil manufacturer has recognized the superiority of synthetic lubricants and followed the AMSOIL lead with introductions of synthetic motor oils of their own.




 Accept NO Substitutes - The Highest Professional and Ethical Standards.

Accept NO Substitutes The QUALITY-FIRST Standard in Synthetic Motor Oil since 1972 = Decades and Thousands of Miles Ahead of The Competition Because in 1972 the oil was also capable of performing for 25,000-Mile “extended oil change drain intervals”, and it was the right thing to do for the consumer all while maintaining and providing long-term performance, wear protection and fuel economy, keeping engines clean and deposit-free, providing cold weather starts and protecting against rust and corrosion.



A.J. "Al" Amatuzio's Philosophy: It is more expensive to make the best oil on the market, and they will not cut into their profit margins to do it.  "I take pride in never having conformed to industry norms or standards when these standards are contrary to peak performance."

LESS Friction = LESS Wear = MAX Fuel Economy  LESS Friction = LESS Wear = MAX Life Cycle and Fuel Economy.

The uniform diameter of synthetic oil polymers allows them to more easily slide over one another. The resultant reduction in friction shows up as more horsepower, torque, reduced internal engine wear and better fuel economy.

1995 Independent Lab Fuel Efficiency Testing of AMSOIL QUALITY-FIRST advanced PAO formulated ULTRA Long Life 35,000-Mile / 1-Year 0W-30 SYNTHETIC Motor Oil showed the oil provided 38% better fuel economy than required for the specification. That was the largest fuel economy increase recorded by the test lab.

LESS Friction = LESS Wear = MAX Fuel Economy  It's ULTRA Low Coefficient of Friction reduces friction so effectively, that virtually none of the engines power is wasted on “drag”. In passenger vehicle performance has delivered up to as much as a 40% increase in fuel economy.

LESS Friction = LESS Wear = MAX Life Cycle and Fuel Economy
Engine protection that blows the doors off the highest industry standards.
