I highly recommend Valvoline high mileage full synthetic 5W-30 oil, with Mobil 1 oil filter, my Si K20z3 seems to run so much smoother for longer with this type of oil.
2017 Yukon Denali. Threw lifters at 134. Replaced all. Bad chirp until 142k when switched to Valvoline rp from m1hm. Still a slight chirp but that was gone after adding can of mos2.
Yo uso Valvoline 15w40 semisintético y no he tenido problemas, es una de las marcas que recomienda el manual de mi carro.
We've been running the valvoline restore and protect oil lately in our fleet of cars and have nothing but positive things to say. Slowed down some oil burning on our high mileage scion TC and no complaints from our other vehicles, including my turbocharged 200k mile 09 focus.
I was a diehard Mobil 1 Extended Protection guy, but fell into the hype about Valvoline Restore & Protect. Tried it on my 2015 Mazda6 2.5 with 95k miles and have to say I'm impressed. I bought it used, it was using about a quart every 3k maybe, and had some blowby. Otherwise ran good, had several 40+ mpg tanks.
Switched to R&P, after 1k the blowby went away and after 3k it looks like it stopped burning oil.
Mobil 1 "eh" oil. It's okay, not bad like royal purple but better off on Vavoline or Pennzoil. Also Motul but that's expensive shit. Amsoil is okay, it's one step above OEM.
My 2007 camry is on 22k km (engine 2AZ-AE). No oil burning so far. Always been using penrite 5w-30 while servicing between 5000 to 8000. Only one time had burning smell while running engine on Valvoline 10W-30. Changed the oil at 3k, after that smooth as it was.
I tested it myself on my 3.0T, pumped everything out with the extractor, then jacked the car up and pulled the plug, catching evening that drained out in a measuring cup. It had less than 1/4 cup of oil left in the pan.
Did this every oil change on my sq5. Made it 180k miles before trading it in. Works very well. That was the easiest oil change I’ve ever done. Of the 15 minutes the job takes, about 4 of those minutes is actually doing something
On my 1.8ts I usually change it when the motor blows up and has to be replaced. They used to last perpetually but builds have progressed to the "Yes it absolutely is going to grenade or window the block before 10k miles???? so really I only ever have to FILL oil 1 time???? I wish this was less true than it actually is. On the rest, (2.7tt and 4.2) 10k miles if you use good full synthetic oil and a nice filter
