I use the castrol gtx high mile full synthetic 10w-40 and a sohn adapter with ideimitsu. I’m sure non of the name brands will hurt As long as you change it frequently.
Pros: change it frequently

I change every 10,000 km - 7000 mi.
Castrol or Mobil full synthetic.
To me that is much better than running any brand of oil longer.
Pros: better than running longer
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 10000 km
I’m a Castrol 0W40 guy myself.
Pros: good quality
It doesn't seem like I burn any oil in my Rabbit. 0w-20 seems too light to me, also, I'm running Castrol Edge 10w-40.
Pros: no oil burning
Cons: 0w-20 seems too light
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 48000 km
I run Castrol GTX 10w40 in my FD. Premix TCW2 2stroke oil .5oz/gal.
Engine seems happy as can be.
Pros: Engine seems happy
Vehicle:
Mazda
I use mobil1 or castrol full synth 0W-20 for prius engines below 200k and 0W-30 for those above it. More than 30k mi now so far so good. I like the castrol better bec my engines sounds much quieter vs m1.
Pros: quieter engine sound
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
Mileage: 30000 km
I use castrol magnatec beucase it has some kindof ionization tech where it sticks to metal surfaces to reduce start up wear which the prius is constanly starting/stopping.
Pros: reduce start up wear
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
As someone who lives in Florida, and has a high mileage m54 motor, I only use Castrol 5w40 and 5w30 if I cant find the first option. Runs amazing and daily driven with some abuse lol
Pros: runs amazing
Go to wallmart and buy two jugs of Castrol Edge Full Synthetic 5W-30 and then just purchase a couple filters off of FCP Euro.
Regardless, I haven't heard of Aral, but I wouldn't knock it without proof that's worse than Castrol.
