vs
Engine oil PENNZOIL or Motorcraft
Reviews
Both oils are very good as long as they meet the 502.00 VW specifications. I'm in FL and I use 5w-40 pennzoil euro for all my turbo VWs.
Pros: oils are very good
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Liquimoly 4210 0w-30 or pennzoil platinum euro lx 0w-30 are the two best imo. I have heard from some other mk8 owners that Pennzoil drops engine temps by 8-20 degrees F so thats what goes in mine.
Pros: drops engine temps
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
As long as you get name brand oil at the weight your owner manual says you'll be good, I run penzoil in mine and she seems pretty happy with it
Pros: seems pretty happy
I run motorcraft in my mustang and have zero complaints.
Pros: zero complaints
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
Finally ended up with Penzoil Plat. Can't tell a difference at all when the oil is fresh. Also engine never burned oil on Penz.
Pros: engine never burned oil
Cons: no difference when fresh
Vehicle:
Lexus IS
I have been running Pennzoil platinum euro in my 16 GTI its entire life and its now at 125,000km. I ran the same oil in my 2007 GTI before I sold it up until 190,000km. Never had a single problem, neither cars burned any oil.
Pros: no problems, no oil burning
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 125000 km
Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5W-40. It’s LL01 approved
Pros: LL01 approved
I used pennzoil platinum euro blend in my 2014 Veloster turbo for probably 50k+ Atleast with no trouble.
Pros: no trouble, good blend
Vehicle:
Hyundai Veloster
Mileage: 50000 km
I switched to the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, which is made from natural gas and it's probably the best full synthetic oil available now, IMHO
Pros: best full synthetic oil
Vehicle:
Hyundai Santa Fe
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
