Engine oil Shell or RAVENOL
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.
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"
Shell helix ultra o é o segundo melhor na minha opinião.
Can’t go wrong with Rotella T6. It’s marketed as a diesel engine oil, but gas engines love the stuff too. It’s just not great for catalytic converters, because it contains a high amount of anti-wear and anti-friction additives.
I'm using Shell Advancen AX7 10w-40 na 800ml sa ADV 160 ko. Swak na swak yun!
I use 5w30, I used to use Schaeffer but it's too expensive now so I switched to Rotella.
Oil consumption was the biggest issue when running 5w30. Changed to a 5w40, 10w30, and then got recommend 15w40 and oil consumption stopped
Rotella T6 ! Zero issues.
The oil i have run: VW brand, Castrol and Ravenol all 0w-20 that meets 508/509. Basically on cooler outside temperatures the oil does run slightly higher than on hotter days.
I switched to Rotella T6 (5w-40 Full Synth) after running Penzoil, Chevron, Castrol, Mobil, regular non-high mileage 10w-30 dinos in that order over 4000 miles. Worst of this bunch was Mobil and Chevron, the HLA tick was unbearable, even right after the oil change.
