Engine oil ROWE or PETRONAS
Petronas Selenia 5w30 é o único que eu usei no meu carro até hoje, trocando de 5 em 5 mil km. É o que está no manual do carro. 66mil km até hoje (10 anos de carro, rodo pouco) e não tenho nada o que falar, cumpre o papel.
Pros: cumpre o papel
Mileage: 66000 km
I changed from Petronas Synthium 3000 to this and I can assure there was obv improvement in smoothness especially when going above 110km/h.
Pros: improvement in smoothness
Petronas is a pure virgin oil.
Great for UAE road and climate.
I personally use Petronas oil or petromin oil.
Great performance and good mileage getting.
Pros: great performance, good mileage
Vehicle:
Ford Explorer
As a 2015 Abarth 595 owner here in the UK I tried Petronas Syntec and have to say the little fella seemed to like it.
Pros: engine liked it
Rowe 5W40, every 10K or 1 year
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Mileage: 10000 km
I found out that most of it came from the valve lifters. So I began using Rowe 10W40 engine oil. That helped a lot.
Pros: helped a lot
Mileage: 230000 km
The road spec oils are excellent for daily driving and trackdays. Smoother engine, better engine efficiency, no oil consumption.
Pros: smoother engine, better efficiency
Cons: no oil consumption
ITS A LOT THICK! than other brands of the same weight.. but when you abuse the vehicle it gets smooth like butter. I like them if I plan to aggressively dune bash.
Pros: gets smooth like butter
Cons: a lot thick
I use Rowe as well and it's fantastic. No complains so far
Pros: fantastic
Cons: no complains
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I used both rowe 5w30 507.00 and the OEM VW HIGH PERFORMENCE 0w30 (yes 0w30) 507.00
I didnt notice any difference between the two . Wear on my oil analysis was about the same with both oils.
Pros: same wear analysis
Cons: no noticeable difference
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
