I'm one of the Motul 5w40 users. I use it because I live in west Texas where we will have weeks in a row over 100⁰F. I've also modified my car and take it to track days. This was the oil recommended by my tuner so that's what I use.
Pros: recommended by tuner, good for hot climate

I use Motul 5w40 *Power* and I’m tuned. It’s really hard to heat up this oil and I have no oil coolers whatsoever and it’s been such a solid oil choice so far but I haven’t seen anyone use it except this one guy on his wrx. Highly recommend it
Pros: hard to heat up, solid choice

Ran Redline 5w40 when it became purely a summer car in ~2013. ... Not seals are leaking, no issues of any form. Car has been Cobb stage 2 91oct tuned (OTS, not pro-tuned) almost 14 years, with a Crawford v2 AOS, Killer B oil pickup + windage tray being the only reliability mods, and it doesn't burn a single molecule of oil.
Pros: no leaks, no issues, no oil consumption

I run 10w-40 castrol gtx been running it for the past 5 years I drive a 2011 wrx
Pros: used for 5 years

I use 5w-40 Motul x clean gen 2 on my built wrx. Running 5w-40 is best for added protection from ethanol dilution overtime and for warmer climates as oil gets pretty hot.
Pros: added protection, good for warm climates

Rotella T6 5w-40 is what I’ve ran in the car ever since it was tuned and I get great feedback from blackstone labs when sending in my oil for analysis.
Pros: great feedback from analysis

I just changed mine wasnt too bad buy the fuel pump tool off amazon helps alot to unscrew the top. My car is a 2018 crosstrek has 206,000 miles highway. So it will last with good gas. I changed mine cause noticed alittle hesitation at high way speeds when i let off and then put back on gas pedal kinda chugged alittle.
Pros: lasts with good gas
Cons: alittle hesitation

Mileage: 206000 km
I’ll never buy Michelin Pilot Sports ever again. The last set I bought would get flat spots while sitting at work for 8hrs and would take 10mins of driving to round out again.
Cons: flat spots while sitting

She's replaced the compressor, condensor, AC recharged then a year or so later once again blowing hot air (we're in TX). Spoke to the mechanic right now & he said the compressor clutch is not kicking in because it's not receiving the ground signal from the engine computer.
Cons: blowing hot air, clutch not engaging
