vs
Engine oil PENNZOIL or Mannol
For Pennzoil, I always use the Ultra platinum over the standard platinum. It has been tested to have lower friction and higher addictive content.
Pros: lower friction, higher addictive content
I have had a much better experience with Pennzoil in Japanese cars. Pennzoil is a bit better.
Pros: much better experience, better performance
Don’t use royal purple heard so many bad things about how it’s not a good brand anymore, I swapped to penzoil oil plantinum 5/30 and honestly the car feels a lot smoother and sounds a lil less ticki but still I’d recommend anything other than royal purple
Pros: car feels smoother
Cons: sounds a lil less ticki
One poster said it right; Amsoil is a Multi Level Marketing program and that's why it's so expensive. Yes it's great oil, however, the Penzoil ULTRA Platinum is high in detergents that keep your engine clean. It's made of natural gas, an industry first, and is so pure and clear you can hardly see it on your dipstick.
Pros: high in detergents
Cons: expensive
I use 10W-40 semi- synthetic Mannol. Cheap and works fine.
Pros: cheap, works fine
Mileage: 2000 km
I always run 5w30 Pennzoil Platinum in mine. I have run other brands, but I have settled on this. Easy to get, often on sale, excellent oil.
Pros: easy to get, excellent oil
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum in my 2016 Focus ST. It seems to love it. Quieter idle, great gas mileage, drives smoother after a cold start.
Pros: quieter idle, great mileage
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
Have been using Mannol for my cars, works perfectly.
Pros: works perfectly
Personally I use 5w-30 because it's the cheapest. I've used 0w-20 and 0w-30 in the car also. Can't tell what is in the car at any given time as it runs exactly the same regardless so just use the cheapest that's still up to the relevant specifications.
Pros: cheapest, up to specifications
Cons: no difference felt
Vehicle:
Honda
Mannol is cheap for a reason as you never know what you will get in a bottle.
Cons: cheap, non-compliant products
