My brand new one acted the same. I did an oil change at 1000 miles and went with Amsoil Hybrid 0w16. Since the oil change I really don\u2019t feel the vibration, much smoother.
On my 25’ Ranger Raptor I’ve done oil change at 500, 2500 and 5000 miles. Will continue every 5k. I run Amsoil signature series 5w30, with MC filter. Ford recommends 10k.
I had an 05 Corolla, it was my Amsoil testbed. After the first two oil changes for break in at 800 and 10k, only one oil change per year, 20-30k miles. Amsoil oil and filters.
Amsoil Signature 0-30 ,Tokyo Roki Black Japan filter only and 5000k, soon to be switching to 0-40
My 05 Corolla had one oil change at 800 miles, one at 10,000 miles, and then once per year for 14 years until it was totalled at 330k miles.
I\u2019ve been using Amsoil Sig Series ever since my first break-in oil change. I used it in my old turbo Cobalt SS that I drove like a jackass when I was younger too. Never had any engine issues and Blackstone analysis shows that up to a 4,500 mile oil change interval is safe for my WRX.
Amsoil always over anyone. I started with AMSOIL in 2004 and after pulling my Hayabusa Engine @ 20k miles to build for a turbo kit, the engine teardown was perfect, the block, pistons and bearings looked entirely new.
Have noticed on several times that when I went from Subaru OEM oil to Amsoil BACK to OEM that it runs much quieter and smoother on Amsoil.
Currently have Ravenol EFE 0w-16 in and have use Pennzoil Platinum, Eneos, and Idemitsu IFG7. I noticed bit of emulsified oil on the dipstick especially when I run in EV mode mostly. So definitely get it out on the highway on a daily basis if possible and get a used oil analysis. I have had 3 done and all three showed various 0w-16 oils shear down out of grade and their Flashpoints decrease.
Amsoil's biggest 'benefit' is a longer service life. Their additive pack doesn't break down as quickly, so you can run it longer between oil changes. However, if you're paying twice as much and running it twice as long, it's a wash and you're not gaining anything. When I was selling Amsoil, I had a modified 4 banger and a high mileage 24v that had both been running Rotella for the entire time that I owned them before switching to T6 when it was introduced. I pulled UOA samples every 1k miles, then switched to Amsoil Signature after 5k and did the same thing except I pushed the Cummins to 10k. Zero improvement in fuel dilution, wear markers, or carbon build-up. After seeing there was no real-world benefit, I stopped selling it. I won't market a product I don't believe in, let alone one that I see as an outright scam.
