I have ran Amsoil since day one on my 2016. I change oil once a year currently sitting at 156,000 miles, no issues knock on wood.
Been using amsoil for a little over a year now and it's really quiet.
Amsoil. My s2k burned just about every oil when I beat on it until I started using Amsoil.
Even Ravenol, which is pretty expensive since it is made in Germany from Group V base stock. Great stuff.
Any major brand of the correct rating and viscosity will work.
That being said, I have an 05 that was used as a DD for 12 years. Short trips, 3 days a week. After 12 years and 47K miles, I added a aftermarket supercharger. Put another 20K on it, including trips to the drag strip and track days.
I then had it rebuilt with forged internals because I wanted higher boost and more power. When the engine was pulled apart and measured. There was no wear. The cylinders were still within factory specs as was the crank.
I had used Amsoil SS 0W-20 the whole time.
Amsoil in everything I ever owned. My 2017 RAV4 hybrid is sitting on 350k miles and still running strong.
I used to have castrol but since i chiptuned my octavia i switched to ravenol and the oil temps went down a good bit and it doesnt use any oil but that could also be because the old oil was 0w20 and the new one is 5w40
Last month I replaced the valve stem seals and it helped massively with the smoke. It doesn't really smoke much anymore, there's definitely still small puffs when taking off quickly, but nothing that I can see in the mirror.
I run amsoil in the engine and primary and redline in the tranny. No issues, my glide runs better on the amsoil then when I the syn3 in it
Here I am just dumping in Amsoil 5W-50 SSO because all I care about is shear wear protection and something content with high temp operation. 20,000 miles and not even a single psi drop in compression the whole time, don't even premix.
