I run Valvoline Restore and Protect. It may be overkill, but I change it every 4-5,000 miles.
If you wanna try and solve the oil burning though, try using either Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 engine oil at your next oil change (and use it for top ups as well) or Valvoline Maxlife 5w-30. If you find your burning oil while driving, it’s probably gummed up piston rings in which case use the Restore and Protect- it’ll take a bit (4 consecutive oil changes) but it’s the only off the shelf oil available that will completely clean the rings and stop the burning.
I've been running Valvoline for the moly content. Not burning oil yet, fingers crossed.
I switched to 5w-30 instead of the factory spec 0w-20 and that slowed down my consumption. I use Amsoil to maximize protection with use of the "wrong" oil weight and I monitor wear with oil analysis and seem to have no change in wear from my 0w-20 use.
I'd recommend using some Valvoline for your oil changes from now on, particularly their Restore & Protect line. It shut those noisy lifters up in 2 oil changes on my old '09 Avalon, and good lord did it flush out a bunch of gunk I didn't know was in there. I got a few MPG's more after it was said and done, too, and she ran happy.
Use good oil, always helps. Try valvoline restore and Protect. Quieted my engine down a little
i use AMSOIL 0-20 in my Vezel. Runs great, maybe slightly better them LM.
I used Amsoil Signature when I was driving 1300 miles a week just so I could go two months between oil changes.
Got a call this morning from him and he said that the gasket/seal for the oil filter housing where it connects to block is leaking oil.
AMSOIL - DO NOT USE THIS CRAP , No seriously this stuff is crap and it's not worth the risk. I put this in my R32 at 24,000 and the motor blew at 24,500 due to a depleted rod bearing.
