Engine oil Castrol or OEM Toyota
Redline and motul are the best but I’ve been running catrol for 50k+.
As far as the castrol goes I bought a used 2018 Kia soul that had a slight knock in the engine for ultra cheap and I was able to make that sound go completely away once I switched to Castrol edge. My vehicle also seamed to burn a lot less oil.
Jeez I feel like an outcast. I run Castrol 20-50 lol but the car loves it
I might switch to liquimoly like a lot of ppl do but I’ve always stuck with the Castrol edge 5w-40, changing around 5k
I been using castrol 5w40 since I got the car new at 82 miles no issues. Sent my oil samples to blackstone for analysis and oil is really good even at 10k.
That's what the dealer and I use. Castrol 5W40
A few years ago Castrol decided to dye all their Magnatec oils green... it was pretty dark green as well.
I used to use German Castrol 0w20 in my Volvo and it was green too.
I use 10w40 full synthetic oil, and only the best quality stuff. Valvoline, Castrol, Pennsoil, Mobil1, Idemitsu end the like. Before my rebuild, I was using Idemitsu Rotary blend but switched to Castrol GTX. The GTX semi synthetic blend had a slightly lower oil temp and lasted longer per oil change than the Idemitsu, indicating that it was lubricating better.
I've used mobil 1 20-50 for the last three oil changes and had really bad ticking noise from the head. This last oil change I used casterol GTX and have had a lot less ticking since. I'm no longer sold on mobil 1 for the rocco.
