Engine oil PENNZOIL or ZIC
Penziol platinum on my 23. change it every 5k and it’s still golden
Pros: oil remains clean
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 45000 km
Decided in the 5w-30 because the engine seems to run a bit smoother with the 30 weight
Pros: engine runs smoother
Been using Zic on two Hyundais (Tucson, Santa Fe), and ok yung performance niya. Maintained yung cars with fully synthetic, 10k/1 year intervals. Smooth pa rin manakbo ang engine until today.
Pros: smooth engine performance
Vehicle:
Hyundai Tucson
Mileage: 10000 km
I use Pennzoil "Ultra" Platinum for my 2010 with 5.4 Triton and it runs amazing. At one point I did try Royal Purple but my engine was actually noticeably noisier so I switched back.
Pros: runs amazing
Cons: engine was noisier
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 320000 km

Penzoil full syn platinum on my 02 and she’s chillin. I’ve never had issues
Pros: no issues, reliable

Better to use ZIC X7 fs oil. Korean oil.
Been using it for several years and it’s amazing for its price.
Pros: amazing for its price
I usually buy Pennzoil, it's inexpensive and it works. I check the contents first to make sure the oil isn't full of gunk in case someone swapped it. I do oil change every 5k km, which is once every 2-3 months, hence I don't worry much about too much gunk as I flush it out often.
Pros: inexpensive, it works
Cons: check for gunk
Mileage: 5000 km
I used Pennzoil before but felt real cheap quality and used to get darker before the competitors. I moved to Mobil 1 or Castrol GTX and felt the difference in smoothness.
Pros: felt difference in smoothness
Cons: real cheap quality, darker
Vehicle:
Toyota Highlander
