Engine oil PENNZOIL or Mannol
Have an 07 Silverado bought new first oil change switched over to Mobil one used that until one of the hurricanes hit Louisiana and started having a problem getting it so switched over to Pennzoil full synthetic. Truck has 368000 on it and seems to be still going strong so I’d say it’s your choice.
Pros: truck still going strong
Cons: problem getting it
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Silverado
Mileage: 368000 km
I use Pennzoil Platinum. Is it the best? Who knows, but I’ve been using it for years on several vehicles and never had an issue.
Pros: no issues for years
Also been using Mannol. Do 6k oil changes though. Made chain noise on start up. Swapped back to mannol noise gone.
Pros: noise gone
Cons: chain noise on start
Mileage: 6000 km
I've used Mannol for a few years, it's dirt cheap here in the UK and I've never had any issues with it.
Pros: dirt cheap, no issues
Using Mannol since years in Mercedes Diesel and gas engines , also in a BMW Boxer.
Pros: used for years
Vehicle:
Mercedes
I’m using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, really helped how effortless my acceleration is and gas mileage.
Pros: effortless acceleration, gas mileage
Onto my third or fourth big bottle of Mannol in a Toyota 2.2d4d and it has never missed a beat.
Pros: never missed a beat
Vehicle:
Toyota
I tried to use the Pennzoil high mileage full synthetic the most, but if I didn't have the bit extra for it, I'd get Walmarts generic full synthetic high milage. I always used a Fram full synthetic filter too, they were the only ones around me that were better quality and decent price for the time. Mine got to 200k no problems!
Pros: better quality, decent price
Mileage: 200000 km
Started running penzoil platinum in my mazdaspeed due to the great UOAs it got on DI motors, and just now run that in all my shit to simplify my life. Only have to keep one oil around that way.
Pros: great UOAs
On the Gen 2 Prius that have been several reports of Pennzoil Platinum full synthetic consuming oil much quicker, me included.
Cons: consuming oil much quicker
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
