Engine oil PENNZOIL or OEM Honda
Frankly, we ran 0W20 for the first 175k miles in our 2017 RAV4. I changed to 5W30 because my Turbocharged Mazda also calls for 5W30.
99 Ls400 owner. Pennzoil Ultra Platinum every 5k miles.
Pennzoil Platinum Euro full synthetic 5W40 on my Abarth. Same weight as written on the engine oil cap and in the user's manual. 5l jugs easily available for $40 CAD plus HST.
Pennzoil Euro Platinum 5w40. This oil is slept on but out performs most other expensive oils outside of Amsoil.
Nice work. My 2012 camryil4 se gets new oil every 3k 0-20 pennzoil ultra syn. 112,000 mi.
I put used vegetable oil in my Honda Accord 7k intervals has 380,000 miles on it
Penzoil Ultra Platinum 0-W20 @3-4K and Mobile 1 Extended Performance Oil Filter. I like that Penzoil derives their oil from natural gas.
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum has some of the best cold flow characteristics so I'm not in a hurry to change it even though it's 5W-30.
I ran 10W-50 and 10W-60 for a few years in an old and beaten up Honda in the hope of reduce oil consumption to avoid having to open the engine. Long story short: it's not harmful, it's an expensive gimmick, the only real-life effect is fuel consumption will slightly worsen and that Honda had occasional issues with VTEC (a well known issue in those engines when running high viscosity oils).
BMW switched from Castrol to Penzoil years ago...but both cause oil starvation in The S65 motor
