Castrol gtx 20w50
Owner reviews for engine oil
I live in Oregon. I run 20w50 valvoline vr1 or Castrol GTX.
10w60 gt1 liquimoly it’s fantastic and has a respectably low ash content. I also noticed reduced fuel consumption well slightly less than before.
I run Valvoline VR1 20W-50. I believe during cooler seasons you can run a thinner (less viscous) oil.
Mobil 1 0w20 ESP. Advance Auto and some Walmarts have it.
Liquimoly is the preferred brand of many. Get an OEM or OE filter (VW, Hengst, Mann).
I used to get my 0-40 Mobil at WalMart for my Audi, because they were the cheapest.
I am currently using Motul 8100 x-clean gen2 5w-40 (good on DPF) for the last 7000km (I think) without any issues. This oil should provide better lubrication, especially if driven hard and during high temps.
I ran Castrol 5W30 full synthetic in the engine.It burned a quart every 3500-4000.
I'm not a fan of Mobil 1. I have noticed my car burns only on Mobil 1.
