vs
Engine oil PENNZOIL or Total
The data I've seen round the web, including BITOG forums says that Pennzoil Platinum and Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W-30 is as good or better than the waaay overpriced Motul stuff.
Pros: good or better
Cons: waaay overpriced
Vehicle:
Subaru
Motul xclean, amsoil signature series, valvoline max life, and penzoil ultra platinum are the favorites.

Ive only bought at walmart. $21.97. My turbo calls for an ingredient thats in the pennz synthetic
I also found out the filter (Mobil 1 extended performance) was about $6 cheaper there too
Pros: required ingredient, cheaper price
Motul or Penzoil.

Pros: good quality oil

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum every 3k miles religiously.
Pros: API SN+ certified

Mileage: 4828 km
The project farm video convinced me to use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. It’s about 98% of the performance of Amsoil for much less money.
Pros: good performance, less money
Vehicle:

From what I've read online, Pennzoil Platinum 5w30 is a solid option that you can find at most retailers.
Pros: solid option
Vehicle:

It worth looking at Total Quartz Ineo Long Life 0W-20, complies with VW 508 00. It will be my pick for my 2019 Tiguan 2.0 TSI EA888 gen3-B V100 = 8.1 V40= 40 VI= 183 Pour Point = -66 C
Pros: complies with VW 508 00
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
That'd be nice. I could just run the same oil in the Tig and my Golf TDI. 504/507 Total Quartz is quite a bit cheaper than the Castrol 0w20 and it's been doing great in my Golf according to the Blackstone reports.
Pros: doing great in Golf
Cons: Total Quartz is cheaper
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
