Engine oil PETRONAS or Lucas
Used it for years in high mileage motors. 215,000 on a 1.8 turbo VW
used no oil between 5,000 mile changes.
Pros: no oil consumption
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 215000 km
Ok, so here’s my anecdote: a friend of mine had an old Ranger that had an oil pump failing. He didn’t want to pay me or anyone else to pull the engine and replace the pump so I suggested he just throw a bottle of this in there and see what happens.
Well, his oil light went off and oil pressure improved.
Pros: oil pressure improved
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
The 5W30 full synthetic engine oil works the best for a wide spectrum. Its working temperature range is practical for daily use and it costs less than 5W40.
Pros: practical for daily use
Cons: costs less than 5W40
Vehicle:
Mercedes
Lucas tool oil is great.
Pros: great tool oil
My giulietta 1.4 MA is still reliable at 130k km. Never had any problems with engine always used recommended petronas oil. Had to rebuild my turbo once (at 120k km) it had very little play that made my car burn some oil.
Pros: reliable, good engine
Cons: turbo rebuild needed
Vehicle:
Alfa Romeo Giulietta
Mileage: 130000 km
like i said 280,000km and had a tick when i got it 2 years ago, used one bottle of lucas, tick is gone. i beat the sheeet out of it everyday. no more tick.
Pros: tick is gone
Mileage: 280000 km
I use Lucas oil in my motor oil for 1990 VW 1.6L Jetta diesel. I started using Lucas Oil because a relative of mine has been driving a large semi for almost 30 years, and he, like many in the trucking industry, swear by Lucas Oil. Judging by the parts per million of metal present in my motor oil, my motor oil with 1 cup of Lucas Oil, was wearing pretty well.
Pros: wearing pretty well
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 12070 km
