I run Pennzoil or Motul depending on if I grab filters locally (Walmart for Pennz) or buy an oil change kit online (most use Motul). I would have no quarrels running Toyota's oil (Mobil 1), Subaru's Oil (Idemitsu), Valvoline, or any of the other reputable brands in my car
Owner reviews for engine oil
I put some Castrol 0w20, no issues.
2016- 130k miles and counting. Stage 1+ tune (Bren tuning). Clutch @ 90k. AOS is great. Motul oil every 4K miles- get the fumoto oil drain valve to make it easy.
my 2017 Passat got totaled in a accident this week, was at 205062 miles running strong off Liqui Molygen 5w-40.
Had my oil tested and it was recommended for 3500. I went with 3k as I do a lot of miles and use mobil 1 so my cost is relatively low.
have run penzz plat 5-30 for the entire life of the car almost, recently switched to the high mileage version as im pushing almost 150k miles on it.
All three I ran Rotella T6 5w-40. I ran 5K oil changes with OEM or WIX filters. All had Blackstone oil analysis done, and all passed every time with flying colors.
I do Motul @ 5k.
I’m at 133k with no weird noises, knocks, etc.
Marvel Mystery Oil, hope, prayers that the mystery comes through. Otherwise seafoam.
It’s not any better than Walmart Castrol, just double if not triple the price. I’m 160k tuned!!!
