I use M1 5-30 because I've ran it in well over a dozen cars and beat on all of them without issue, and it's only $28 for a gallon jug at walmart. I also run liqui moly ceratec to silence the typewriter tick it developed around 35k.
I use 5W-30 Motorcraft
Valvoline full synthetic, 5w-20, She has 151k and counting.
Send your used oil to Blackstone or Amsoil for analysis and all of your questions about oil will be answered.
The recommended Castrol isn't bad, but I've had better success with Mobil1 and Liquid Moly.
Try using liqui moli engine oil, change the air filter too.
I’m using the 0w16 from Renault that probably is a Shell RN17, I have about 25.000km now and I will do the third change on the beginning of next year… but in the sandero that I also own I changed to 5w30 (from 0w20) both RN17 and the engine feels way softer and silent…
This is normal. Wait till it gets below 1k rpm. Modern engines do not need a lot of time to idle after cold start, the ECU handles it. Although, for a few kilometres, do not push very hard. The engine oil (0w-20 idemitsu) is thin, and needs time to lubricate well.
My ‘15 Golf Sportwagen ate a quart Mobil 1 between oil changes. Not the case for LM.
Liqui Moly is just marketing hype, isn't actually an oil that outperforms other brands.
