vs
Engine oil PENNZOIL or Mannol
Honestly, I just use Pennzoil Platinum for the past 7 years. but now I feel like reliability depends on the user, just keep up with the oil changes at least every 3k and if you’re abusing, just watch your oil temps. I have 145k miles and I abused this car since I had it at 0 miles. Still original motor and tuned by Admin.
Pros: reliability depends on user
Mileage: 145000 km
Since switching to Platinum there are no oil leaks and less than a qt. to top up between changes.
Pros: no oil leaks
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum usually or Castrol Edge. In North Texas I’ll run a cold grade of 10w in summer and usually 5w in winter. 40 or 30 summer hot viscosity/ weight and 30 winter. 4.2 version of your 4.0 S/C AJV8.
Pros: cold grade of 10w
Older high mileage car: Pennzoil High Mileage blend. Works better for me than Valvoline MaxLife to reduce gasket seeping and weeping.
Pros: reduce gasket seeping
I use 5w30 Pennzoil platinum and a Fram Endurance synthetic oil filter in all my Subes.

I personally use Pennzoil Platinum in my Ascent and Mobil 1 in my Crosstrek, mostly for cost and availability reasons.
Pros: cost, availability
Vehicle:
Subaru
I’ve been using Penzoil Ultra Platinum in my Jeep and it’s been running great, so far lol. The cold flow properties of the oil I use is really important because the winters here can be rough, thus why after watching that video I swapped to it.
Pros: running great, cold flow
Vehicle:
Jeep
I bought oil last year for 22€ for 10l and I use the HiFlo filter with RC on it. Oil is from Mannol. Full synthetic, what do I need more? All the oil company’s always tell you that they are the best, but they don’t even tell you what the difference with their own oil is. Let alone how they are better then the others.
Pros: cheap, full synthetic
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum in all my cars.
If you have ever rebuilt an engine that used Pennzoil, you would never use it again. The top of the head will be covered in carbon.
Cons: carbon buildup
Vehicle:
Honda
Mileage: 50000 km
