I used vavoline for my second oil change and so far so good
I have a 2020 Corolla se with the 2.0l and I use 0w-16 from Mobil 1 which makes Toyotas oil for them.
20w 50 Valvoline VR1 is all I use. It’s expensive but because the gearbox and engine use the same oil you need a high zinc oil and VR1 is the best out there in my opinion.
I run valvoline motorcycle 20w50 in the primary and crankcase and valvoline 75w140 diff in the trans.
Mobil 1 15w-50, Viton o-ring from any automotive or industrial supply house, Wix or NAPA(mfd by Wix) filter.
I use Mobil 1 15/50 in the engine, rotella t 15/40 in the primary, and Mobile 1 75/140 in the transmission.
I was using 0w20 because of price but got some mobile 1 deal 0w16 for cheap so I'll try that and see if I get better MPG (currently 35-42).
I use Valvoline 20W 50 VR1 racing oil. It’s got a high magnesium content so well suited for the gearbox.
Funny, I changed my oil today for the first time as well. Also 1700 miles. Not black but certainly a lot darker than the Mobil One 0w40 that replaced it..
i got a little valve clatter when i went to 0w40 on my next oil change i'll be using 5w40 (synthetic)
