vs
Engine oil RAVENOL or Total
Ravenol user here (previously motul and shell user). So far, engine temp is 1 line lower, quieter engine, and very slightly better fuel economy. Ravenol for the Altis 2.0, yaris, and rav4.
Pros: quieter engine, better fuel economy
Cons: none
On 2006 F800S i have used Ravenol. I tried Shell, BMW oil(Shell, basically) and Ravenol. With Ravenol- no false neutrals. At stops i was able to find neutral almost instantly... And engine sounds somewhat "greasy"
Pros: no false neutrals
Vehicle:
BMW
This oil has good parameters and depending on your driving habits will require change 6k-10k, but if you can perform changes more frequently - even better.
I can personally recommend ***Total Quartz Ineo FDE 0W30****.* This oil has even better specifications than *Petronas.*
Pros: good parameters, better specifications
I use Ravenol on my 1NZ and 3ZR engines.
I’m using Total 5W30 and pretty satisfied with the performance.
Pros: satisfied with performance
I run Total Quartz 9000 Future FGC 5W-30 in mine. Change every 3500 miles.
Mileage: 5632 km
I use the same oil for my C4 1.6HDi, just 5w-40 and it works great, since I don't have a DPF.
Pros: works great
Vehicle:
Citroen C4
for 1.6hdi 2014. i use total Q ineo ECS 5w-30. Reccomended by the factory for engines with DPF.
Pros: reccomended by the factory
I have an Octavia 2.5 vRS TDI and it has 450k km now, it only drank 5w30 and never an issue, not even in cold winters and I had a few -25 starts and it started right away, at the first key turn.
Pros: easy cold winter starts
Vehicle:
Skoda Octavia
Mileage: 450000 km
after 2000km of running on it, i see there is quite a drop (30% from the max point). i think that is very weird...
Cons: quite a drop
Mileage: 2000 km
