Engine oil MOTUL or PETRONAS
Motul 8100xclean 5w40 during the summer since I'm in az and every day is 100+, the 5w30 loses its viscosity too fast in the summer
Motul 8100 xcess 5-40. I got a built shortblock and it’s the best for the boxer engine IMO
Only use Motul 8100 5w40. I have after market parts and turbo.
Only use motul. XCess gen 2 5w40 for the ‘04 wrx. I get oil samples sent to the lab on the wrx and it has consistently been improving results since switching to motul. At first they were worried about the motor and now they say it looks clean as a whistle
Always used Motul 8100 xclean 5w30 every 3k miles on the dot.
I changed from Petronas Synthium 3000 to this and I can assure there was obv improvement in smoothness especially when going above 110km/h.
Anything from Motul Go for full synthetic and according to the grade and spec recommended by your instruction manual.
Prefer 10w40 full synthetic only.
The Motul oil you’re looking at is pretty similar to any old big box oil, but it costs a ton.
It’s absolute trash, stop using it.
A little back story I just recently did an oil change in my ‘20 WRX, was using Valvoline full synthetic and decided to try out Motul, noticed my oil temps went up 4-6° and started doing some research into oil. Discovered that Motul ranks 177 out of 244 oils tested for wear protection, Amazon basics and Walmart ranked higher.
