I believe the final takeaway was that Valvoline Max protection was the best
I just switched to Valvoline EP 0w20 after using Mobile 1 all my life, for a very important reason...
...the easy to open top with a built in pour spout. So good.
For this reason I run Valvoline 20W-50 VR1 which has high zinc and phosphorus to deal with the extra loads the flat-tappets put on the camshaft vs roller tappets.
I’ve used a few but the best for me is mopar oil filter and Valvoline full synthetic.
I’ve been using Valvoline full synthetic with a KN filter. Never had an issue
Valvoline full synthetic with max life tech is my current favorite but I think I might be able to unseat him soon.
My Miata has almost 300k on the original head gasket I started using the far right a few times ago and I don’t leak a lick of oil
I personally use 5w50 valvoline fully synthetic racing oil for my r56 and change every 5000 km which is like around 3k miles and it's running good
I’m not going to argue with anyone about what it does but I’ve used Lucas for a long long time I have a 93 Chevy truck with 400k miles that I have never taken care of correctly I have run it out of oil overheated it overloaded it and abused and mistreated the engine in that truck and its still able to do any thing I need it to.
I use this on my 2003 Passat 1.8T probably every 2-3 oil changes. Motor has 269,000 miles and burns a smidgen of oil on startup. The Lucas seems to help a bit.
