Engine oil PENNZOIL or Motorcraft
Reviews
Pennzoil. I've run conventional, semi synthetic, and full synthetic. Nearly 200k miles, still kicking like a mule. 7500 mile oil changes on the reg, some to 9000. No signs of slowing down.
Pros: still kicking like a mule
Cons: none
Mileage: 321869 km
Pennzoil ultra platinum often goes on sale or has rebates, I'll stock up a couple years supply when it does.
Pros: goes on sale, has rebates
0W-30 VW 504 spec Penzoil Euro Platinum is all I use in my MK7.5.

I have a 16 with 110k miles and have consistently ran 5w-30 Pennzoil Ultra Platinum with no issues.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 177027 km
Pennzoil Platinum can be found for $26/5qt. and it’s certified to protect against LSPI. I’d suggest going that route if you’re trying to save some cash. I did and the car seems to love it.
Pros: car seems to love
Cons: save some cash
Vehicle:
Subaru
I run Penzoil Euro Platinum 5W-40 because it's regularly on sale at Canadian Tire.

I was having some issues with shuddering when the engine warmed up. Put in Motorcraft 5w20 synth blend in my 2015 XLT 5.0 and it’s been running like a champ
Pros: running like a champ
Cons: engine shuddering
2010 Passat B6 with the 2.0T ea888 gen one engine. Different car, same engine. I run Pennzoil euro 0w40 in mine. 6-8k on the oil changes. Engine is quiet and smooth. 136k on it.
Pros: engine quiet and smooth
