Engine oil IDEMITSU or FUCHS
I've been running that exact oil in my rx8 for about 1k km now and its still as smooth as ever
Pros: still as smooth as ever
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 1000 km
i am of the mindset of using oil from the region. my GTI is a german car and gets liquimoly, a german oil. my toyota/subaru is Japanese, Idemitsu is a japanese oil (and the oem supplier for Subaru). i have 5w30 in it now.
Pros: using oil from region
Vehicle:
Toyota
Using it for 5 years, changing oil avery 8000-10000 kikomiters, enjine souns good (as for disel car)
Pros: enjine souns good
Mileage: 9000 km
I've been running Idemitsu oil in the XT and the wife's Crosstrek for the last four and five years and have been happy with it.
Pros: happy with it
Vehicle:
Subaru Forester
You’ll be fine, idemitsu is a bit of a rotary specialist when it comes to fluids
Vehicle:
Mazda
Fuchs Titan pro 5w50
Pros: Titan pro
I think Idemitsu is the better option if you have access to it. Mostly because it was developed for the rotary engine.
Pros: developed for rotary engine
Cons: hard to find
Last oil change I've decided to try what my friends run and bought FUCHS GERMANY: TITAN SYN MC 10W-40 and put 2k km on it, I'm pleased, it's nice greasy and cheap
Pros: nice greasy and cheap
Mileage: 2000 km
Idemitsu to both, because it’s designed and tested on rotaries.
Pros: designed for rotaries
I have oil analysis done in my TDI and a 10K OCI is a reach. The factory fill was almost depleted of wear additives at 5,500 miles. Fuchs Titan GT-1 was still serviceable at 7,000 miles, but I would not have carried it out beyond that.
Pros: serviceable at 7,000 miles
Cons: 10K OCI is a reach
Mileage: 5500 km
