I only use Amsoil Signature Series in my B58.
I changed to that and really happy with it so far, shifting is butter smooth.
Pros: shifting is butter smooth
Based on my own tests, I found the AmsOil to be the best at reducing heat a few degrees. It's not cheap, but it's still cheap insurance, all things considered.
Pros: best at reducing heat
Cons: not cheap
I use Amsoil 20w50 in all 3. You don’t need a different oil for the trans. Amsoil is not cheap but I’ve been using it on my 03 FatBoy since new and have had no problems.
Pros: no problems, good oil
Cons: Amsoil is not cheap
Originally switched to Amsoil for the Noack rating but stayed because it's just good stuff. I now run Amsoil products for all fluids in all vehicles.
Pros: good stuff, high quality
I use AMSOIL 5W-30 for both of our vehicles. Never had any issues on either vehicle using AMSOIL.
Pros: no issues, reliable
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 90000 km
200K on the Altima with AMSOIL CVT, 150K on the Rogue with AMSOIL CVT and wait for it....140K on the Pathfinder with AMSOIL CVT.
Pros: high mileage performance
Vehicle:
Nissan Altima
Mileage: 200000 km
I did have a 1982 diesel Jetta go 435,000 miles on oem int. shaft bearings. I had access to a lot of free Amsoil back then....so, that may have helped. However, I think it over-lubed the cylinder walls though. Rings weren't exactly what you would call 'tight.'
Pros: may have helped bearings last
Cons: over-lubed cylinder walls, rings were not tight
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 700065 km
im actually running that oil right now... I hate it tbh. 3,100 on the oil and it has allowed excess engine noise since day one, SUPER harsh cold starts, and now its burning through faster than the catrol I ran when I first got the car. a WHOLE QUART over 750 miles. the oil is thinner than piss going in, and it just doesnt stand up to what my engine can put out like Shell Rotella T6 has been doing...
Cons: excess engine noise, harsh starts
Vehicle:
Audi A3
Mileage: 5000 km
