Engine oil PENNZOIL or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
I swear by penz ultra platinum/euro platinum in my cars. Really good anti wear additive package in that stuff.
Pros: good anti-wear additives
I use Pennzoil Platinum. It's made from natural gas, a cleaner base than crude. My engine loves it. Minimal consumption between oil changes and no leaks.
Pros: engine loves it, minimal consumption, no leaks
I went with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w-30. 20k on the clock of my 2023 and it doesn’t burn a drop of oil. I changed the oil at 1k and 3k after that and it always comes out looking beautifully.
Pros: no oil burn, looks beautiful
Vehicle:
Subaru
Pennsoil 0w30 is a great oil
Pros: great oil
Penzoil is the only "clean" oil. It's made from natural gas rather than crude oil. So that in itself is beneficial when talking about deposits left in your engine vs other oil brands.
Pros: made from natural gas, beneficial for deposits
For experience using pennzoil. Really good stuff
Pros: really good stuff
I run pennzoil 5w30 ultra platinum. ... PUP is great for direct injected turbo. Anthony (Dmann) told me that PUP 5w30 is the way to go in western PA
Pros: great for direct injected turbo
I've been using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum since the first change in my 2016. Prior to that, I used it exclusively in my RX-8 that made it to 154k on the original engine.
Pros: engine lasted 154k miles
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 247837 km
Varies too widely, my trans am takes conventional oil and inexpensive filter and is an easy job, while a Porsche 911 requires removal of the oil pan and expensive oil, while my emission cheating Jetta only can use $10/qt special oil. Can be from $40-400.
Pros: inexpensive filter
Cons: expensive oil
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
