As an avid amsoil user I am bought into the brand. Every product I have has made my equipment run better. I run a small farm and have amsoil in every fluid in all of my vehicles. If you are in the preferred deal it really isn't that much more expensive than regular oil.
My L5P doesn't tick with amsoil. My 5.3 you can't hear the lifters with amsoil. I have a 5.3 that has 300k on it and never had a motor problem with it and it has been pure amsoil since 35k miles.
I pay about that. Quality oil and filters cost money. Many shops price oil changes as a loss leader. Euro oil changes are not sold this way, you pay the true price of the service (roughly $80 in supplies, half an hour of labor). I pay ~$160, But you get quality oil in return.
I made myself the services, and used Motul 7100 10w50, I can feel the gearbox it's smoother.
I have a 2017 1500 5.7 that’s had nothing but Amsoil SS 0W-20. Purrs like a kitten. I have done multiple used oil analysis on all my family’s vehicles. They all use SS OW-20 and the analysis come back with very positive results. I will never use anything other than Amsoil.
At 156k after cam/lifter replaced I started doing DIY Amsoil changes. At 255k I put in a crate engine. If Amsoil made a difference it got the bottom half of the engine to 250k miles from 156k so about 13? oil changes. I think the cost difference is minimal so yes, I think it was worth it. Delaying $10k for new engine is the goal.
Mopar oil filter, amsoil 0w20, don’t over torque filter housing.
Here is what IAG recommends
FA2ODIT (91 or 930ct) - Motul 5w30 8100 X-clean EFE, change oil every 2500-3000 miles
Motul 5w-40 8100 X-clean Gen2 may be used in climates where the average ambient temperature is above 80° fahrenheit. It is important to note that the oil used must carry the GM dexos 2 rating.
Was using motorcraft, switched over to Amsoil. Cost is the same maybe a couple dollars more.
Motul. Always. Held up over 500hp for 2 years zero issues on unopened stock block plus its what almost all tuners recommend.
I use Amsoil. While not on the official VW list as an approved oil, it is never the less formulated to the VW spec.
