Engine oil PENNZOIL or ROWE
I used to only use Mobil-1, now I use Penzzoil. I go with whoever has the best rebate at the time. they are all fine.
Pros: fine quality
I've been using Pennzoil Platinum in my 2010 for a few years. I saw how it was the best oil tested on Project Farm on YouTube. I get it for $27 for a 5-quart jug at Walmart.
Pros: best oil tested
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 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
Grab a good quality 0/w20 synthetic. I'm currently using Pennzoil and a Fram filter.
Pros: good quality synthetic
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 120000 km
Pennzoil is fine, definitely not the best though (my 9th Gen si burned a lot using it) if you can get Mobil 1 or Castrol l I’d go for them instead and use an oem filter.
Cons: burned a lot
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
