does home depot sell car oil

[MacEvangeline]

Yes, Home Depot sells motor oil, but its selection is specifically geared toward outdoor power equipment like lawn mowers, leaf blowers, and pressure washers, not your typical passenger car. For your daily driver, you'll find a very limited choice of conventional and synthetic oils, often in smaller quantities like quarts. The store's focus is on the SAE 30 and 10W-30 viscosities common in small engines.

For a proper oil change, you're better off at an auto parts store like AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts, which offer a much wider range of brands, viscosities (including European formulas), and bundle deals with filters. Big-box competitors like Walmart also have a more comprehensive automotive section. The key is matching your vehicle's manufacturer-recommended oil type and viscosity, which is usually found in your owner's manual.

Product Category	Typical Brands at Home Depot	Common Viscosities Available	Best For
Small Engine Oil	Briggs & Stratton, Craftsman	SAE 30, 10W-30	Lawn mowers, tractors
Passenger Car Oil	Mobil, SuperTech (Walmart brand)	5W-30, 10W-30 (limited stock)	Emergency top-offs
2-Cycle Oil	Echo, Husqvarna	Various pre-mix ratios	Chainsaws, trimmers
Synthetic Blend	Mobil Clean 5000	5W-30	Older model vehicles

If you're already at Home Depot for another project and need a quart to top off your engine, you might get lucky. However, for a full oil change with the correct filter, planning a trip to a dedicated automotive retailer will save you time and ensure you get the right product for your car.

Yeah, they have some, but it’s not what you’d want for your car. It’s mostly for lawn mowers. The stuff for your Camry or F-150 is a real hit-or-miss situation. You might find a couple of quarts of 5W-30 on a messy bottom shelf. I’d only grab it in a real pinch. Just run down to AutoZone instead; they’ll have the right oil and the filter you need.
