Oem is pretty much everyone’s go to ( for good reasons ) but valvoline actually has an updated filter for our cars that matches oem & I’ve been using them for last 6 oil changes ( 30,000km ) & I’ve had 0 issues
I just did the restore and protect on my 2015 and let me tell you that it has made a massive improvement. Immediately the engine runs quieter and smoother and after 500km it’s like my engine has much more power.
I think that as a general rule you want a motorcycle specific oil in your primary because of specific additives in it for a wet motorcycle clutch. Just don't use a super slick oil like the Valvoline VR1 Racing blue sapphire stuff.
I recommend valvoline syn power mst C3 for Renault diesel engines with dpf filter. Low saps oil which will produce less carbon in your engine. I have 110hp version of 1.5dci and use this oil for last 6 years. Never had a problem and oil consumption is minimal
Valvoline is really good and proves it on tests. Available at any auto parts store... currently running it in a westinghouse 2550dfc
I run Valvoline VR1 20W-50. I believe during cooler seasons you can run a thinner (less viscous) oil.
I use Valvoline R&P 0w-20 and my engine sounds healthy. so does my mom’s Velar. I think whats more important is using the correct viscosity and changing it on time.
Valvoline restore and protect oil or shell rotella t6 oil....
The t6 diesel oil has all the detergents you need to maybe clean out the rings. (And meet the more stringent european standards).
5-30 Valvoline restore & protect is working wonders on my 2.5. Visibly cleaning out deposits and engine running stronger
I switched to valvoline restore and protect on my 06 is250 and it’s working great. The valves are a lot quieter compared to the previous oil I was using which was Kirkland synthetic.
