I use Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic in my 21 Forester. $23 for 5qt from Walmart and $12 oil filter from dealership.
Pros: affordable, readily available
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
Have a look on Amazon they do some good deals on oil, I normally stick it in my basket and wait for it to drop.
My old car was Castrol 5w30 Magnatec, £28.50 for 4l on Amazon £43.99 from euro.
Pros: good deals on oil
I changed my engine oil at 5k km on my own because the bike felt shit to drive, heating up too much + shitty mileage, my guess is that RE uses an improper grade or bad quality oil, i used the motul 10w50 fully synthetic oil, it's an immediate and huge improvement, mileage, heating, smoothness, clutch, everything improved, and I'm not even exaggerating.
Pros: huge improvement, everything improved
Cons: heating up too much, shitty mileage
Mileage: 5000 km
Part number: 10W50
Even Ravenol, which is pretty expensive since it is made in Germany from Group V base stock. Great stuff.
Pros: great stuff
Cons: pretty expensive
Project farm did a bunch of tests on all popular oil brands and amsoil won followed closely by pennzoil ultra platinum. The pennzoil is easier to get so that’s what I use on all my cars.
Pros: easier to get
I've used Mobil 1 in my 2011 Mazda Speed3 for 8 years. My 2019 Bullitt gets Mobil 1 as well. Mobil 1 is reasonably priced and meets the spec required by both cars.
Pros: reasonably priced, meets spec
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mobil 1. I've used it in all of my cars. Two of my mustangs lasted until 240k before needing a rebuild.
Pros: engine lasted long
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
Mileage: 240000 km
Mobil 1, my 05 GT with 150k miles on it getting cams a few weeks ago looks clean inside. I've had the car since 70k and Mobil is all I run in it.
Pros: engine looks clean
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 150000 km
I've posted my UOAs on TDIClub and BITOG. The factory fill was additive depleted at 5400 miles. The Fuchs 507.00 in the next fill was good for 7-7500 miles. It might have gone longer, but I changed it out in advance of a long trip. Bottom line is that preliminary evidence is that the 507 oils are inadequate for extended OCIs in the 3.0L motor.
Pros: good for 7-7500 miles
Cons: additive depleted at 5400
Mileage: 8694 km
