I change the oil myself...to ensure it's done correctly and with quality oil (I use Castrol Edge). And I go by the oil minder. I do smell gas during oil changes but it's not strong and never in the cabin between oil changes as some have reported.
Pros: quality oil, done correctly
Cons: smell gas during changes
Vehicle:
Honda
Mileage: 60000 km
I've been using the x-clean EFE every 3k miles forever now an am tuned on full e85 now for 30k miles besides the factory valve tube seal leaking they fixed at 14k miles once but that's due to 23' errors. Now am thinking did I use the wrong one hahaha but am 30k miles deep in my use never anything oil that the efe in mine.
Pros: 30k miles deep in use
Cons: factory valve tube seal leaking
Mileage: 3000 km
I use Mobil one in Canada when it goes on sale synthetic 0W20 10 k intervals 13 yr old corolla 1.8 and 15 yr old tundra 5.7 350 k and 320 km ; no oil consumption work great
Pros: no oil consumption, works great
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
Mileage: 350000 km
I’ve personally been running Liqui Moly LL-04 5W-30 as this grade seems a lot better to be using in a high performance engine to induce longevity. Plus the gen 2 B58s don’t have the same oil pump issues as the gen 1.
Pros: better for longevity
Vehicle:
BMW
I went down a rabbit hole with engine oil a while back and settled on ravenol. I get that most top tier oils are good enough but my issue was I was consuming more oil than I'd like with my f10 m5 and since switching, it is consuming considerably less oil
Pros: less oil consumption
Vehicle:
BMW
I buy 5 OE Toyota filters at a time from Amazon ( approximately $6 ea ) Purchase Ow-20 Idemitsu oil from NAPA ( ships free to my home ) in the cost saving 6gal box ( 24 qts ) for about $125 with their online coupon. Use this in both my Avalon and my Tundra- both run like a dream.
Pros: cars run like a dream, cost-saving
Vehicle:
Toyota Avalon
I use PUP 0w20 in mine. Lots of tests and UOA show that Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is the best non-boutique oil you can buy. But honestly any top shelf oil will work. 5k km intervals are more important than brand with a turbo engine.
Pros: best non-boutique oil
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 5000 km
I did an oil change with liquimolly 5w-40 and added liquimolly lifter additive, and drove it for a week hoping it would go away.

Could be the oil and not any problem with the engine itself. In India, these engines come with Motul 7100 full synthetic oil. There have been some discussions on the 390Duke forums and on Reddit that the oil burning issue and high oil consumption is caused by using Motul 7100
Cons: oil burning issue
