Engine oil Mobil or LIQUI MOLY
Liquimoly Leichlauf High Tech 5W-40 with OEM filter. VW 502.00 and 505.00 certification and no complaint here.
No warranty here (MKV), but i experienced a (significant) decrease in oil consumption, when switching from Motul, to MolyGen. YMMV.
I only ever use Liqui-moly and Mann filters on these cars. This past weekend, I cleaned the hell out of the interior.
I'm at 50k using M1 0W-40 at around a 8k oil change interval. Did the first change at 5k. Ran it up to 10k for the last change. Not burning a drop of oil. That is like a miracle for a VAG engine.
Mostly Mobil 1. I have been looking into other oils for my Z06 though.
For Nissan I see people tend to prefer Mobil 1 Full synthetic. I don't know what other oil my Sentra was using before but the car runs better on Mobil 1 for me.
ever since 15,000 miles I’ve been using Mobil1 0w40 and Mobil1 oil filter every 5k miles. I’ve used it on both hot 80-100f summer temps and now on winter temps. Haven’t had a single issue. When cold I can tell how the engine revs down quicker since oil is really thick so I couldn’t imagine the 5w. Still it’s been running for more than 50k miles on the Mobil1 0w-40 and it’s been great.
The accord gets regular mobil 1 from walmart.
I use Mobil1 0w-40 and a Mobil1 filter. Haven’t had any issues. I’ve noticed that when my oil intervals where more far apart the engine would idle at 1,400rpms then feel like it raises it and lowers it like some of the sort. An issue that goes away once I put fresh new oil in everytime. It doesn’t interfere with the engines performance or anything but it’s something I notice on cold starts.
I originally ran 10k intervals as recommended by VW. Early oil changes were done with Castrol Edge OE 5W-40(exact same type the dealership uses) Later on I thenswitched to Liqui Moly 5w40 Leichtlauf high tech and began running at 5K intervals after reading quite a bit about the 10k intervals being too long.
