Engine oil Castrol or RAVENOL
On 2006 F800S i have used Ravenol. I tried Shell, BMW oil(Shell, basically) and Ravenol. With Ravenol- no false neutrals. At stops i was able to find neutral almost instantly... And engine sounds somewhat "greasy"
The closest I found was Castrol? Long life 507 which was £40 for 5L from Amazon, but I had to buy the stuff direct from VW as was pushed for time for my oil change (with a friend).
Although even if my Manufacturer recommends 10w30, I'll still go for that Castrol Power1Ultimate 10w40. It's such a Buttery Smooth Oil.. that's the best gift you can ever give to your >200cc motorcycle.
Castrol LL01 5w30 is $25 for 5 quarts at Walmart. Will work for your car
I've been running Castrol GTX High Mileage in my Honda for over 140,000 miles. It has 262,000 miles on it now, and I have always done 10,000 mile oil changes over the 235,000 miles I've put on it.
Ik heb Castrol olie gekocht die synthetisch is. Ik heb geen expert maar voor mijn 23 jaar oude Ford Focus neem ik liever het zekere voor het onzekere.
Castrol 5w-30 been fine in every vehicle I had
I use castrol edge. It burns a lot less oil that when I was using Motul
Castrol makes a Edge Euro 5w-30 and 5w-40 that is LL-01 and ACEA A3/B4, it's not going to meet the later LL requirements because it's higher viscosity and not as fuel conserving, also not low SAPS so potentially it could contribute to more intake valve buildup
Had my gle350d 4matic oil change garage used Oil Designed for Ford cars believe it was A5 castrol
Nearly 3000miles later engine rattled. On stripdown found shell on crankshaft had welded to crankshaft. Eng report it was shell slippage.
