Engine oil Mannol or OEM Audi
Daj probajte jednom u životu mannol ulje i maknite se od preplacenih marki ulja. Tocim mannol vec 5 godina i barem znaš da nisi kupio krivotvoreno ulje ili castrol proizveden za tursku i žnj zemlje prosvercan u lijepu našu.
Pros: znas da nisi kupio krivotvoreno ulje
Cons: preplacenih marki ulja
OP I have the same car and engine as you, I've been using the cheap Mannol stuff, whichever is cheapest. Also whichever the cheapest oil filter is from ECP at the time. Car is currently on 120k and I've been doing this for at least 5 years and it hasn't eaten itself yet!
Pros: cheap, engine still running
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Mileage: 120000 km
You can actually get decent quality oil which is not from an expensive brand for pretty cheap, particularly if you buy a 20l jug.
For example, Mannol offer fully synthetic oils which meet OEM specifications
Pros: decent quality, meets specifications
Cons: not expensive brand
Vehicle:
Mercedes
Been using Mannol 5w30 Full Synthetic for past 35k miles now without any issues.
Pros: no issues
Mileage: 56327 km
For the UK, cheap and good: Mannol Fully Bi-Synthetic Engine Oil Longlife 3 5w30
The car runs well, no problems starting up, no significant oil burning.
Pros: car runs well
Cons: no oil burning
I use Mannol 7715 on my 3.0tdi
Part number: 7715
I use the mannol 5w30, it might be cheap but it's still just as slippy
Pros: just as slippy
Cons: might be cheap
I don’t drive my car enough to hit any of the reasonable mileage points. I change my oil yearly, roughly around the time it gets inspected. Might be overkill (last year the car moved 2k miles, the year before was 2.4k), but I figure the $80-85 I pay is worth it. My wife’s Q7 will be getting its oil changed every 5k miles. It’s a 3.0T supercharged and they love to eat oil, I’d probably add half the oil back just to make it to 10k.
Pros: yearly change, peace of mind
Cons: overkill for low mileage
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
Mileage: 2000 km
I just change it every 3k as a maintenance think no one told me to. I'm just afraid of messing up my turbo if I waited to long.
Cons: fear of turbo damage
Vehicle:
Audi A4
Mileage: 3000 km
Mannol is cheap for a reason as you never know what you will get in a bottle.
Cons: cheap, non-compliant products
