Just got my first Blackstone oil report on this engine. LiquiMoly 5W/40, 9,098 Miles. Here' s their comment: "We think you've got the oil change interval dialed in pretty well, but with results like these, you could push it a little if you wanted or needed to.
I have used the LiquiMoly kit and it seems great. Awaiting my Blackstone oil analysis from the first oil I put in...ran it for 9000 miles, which was more than I had intended.
Switched over to LiquiMoly Molygen since 90K. Engine and transmission drives like new.
Right now I have liqui moly 5w-30 in there and it runs fine.
I’m using penz plat though I’ve only had my oil changed once (3500 on my OD) but so far so good. My oil temp stays around the 200 mark once fully warmed up and has been running very smoothly.
I paid $90 for the 9 liters of liqui moly OEM oil my s5 requires and did it myself.
I've ran liquid moly strictly on my car.
The data I've seen round the web, including BITOG forums says that Pennzoil Platinum and Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W-30 is as good or better than the waaay overpriced Motul stuff.
Motul xclean, amsoil signature series, valvoline max life, and penzoil ultra platinum are the favorites.
Ive only bought at walmart. $21.97. My turbo calls for an ingredient thats in the pennz synthetic
I also found out the filter (Mobil 1 extended performance) was about $6 cheaper there too
