Engine oil Castrol or Eneos
I\u2019ve always preferred Castrol gold.
In my 323i with the 2.5L N52 engine, I use Castrol Edge 5w40 with the appropriate LL specification. Oil consumption is 3000 km per liter, with 190,000 km on the clock.
Castrol is really good considering cost and quality.
I replaced the plugs, oil/filter and air filter with oem parts when I got it. I\u2019ve been changing the oil at 5k intervals with the recommended Castrol 0w-20.
I run Castrol (bought at Walmart), like my father and his father did before me...
I use it in my non deleted CJAA (dumb) but I haven't had any issues (yet) and it doesn't burn oil.
2014 VW Passat 1.8TSI engine. 249k miles. Did the recommended oil change at every 10k until 125, then every 5 k. Transmission fluid change every 80k, looking back, will switch to 60k, just to be safe.
I've been using Castrol GTX High Mileage for almost 10 years in my 2009. I've always done 10,000 mile changes and I've got 298,000 miles on it. Blackstone tests on my 10,000 mile oil say it should be good for another 2000 miles.
I did burn more Castrol than kroon. now i cannot get kroon and changed to Motul which seems to burn faster than kroon.
I tried Castrol and was not a fan, found it burned faster than any oil I used.
