I’ve run it for about 300 miles now in my 08’ Hummer with the 6.2L. So far cold start noises have drastically gone down, oil pressure hasn’t changed much. Truck seems happy so far. I’m monitoring dip stick varnish to see how well this cleans over time, for now I’m using my ears as my evidence and it sounds so much better.
Just threw some into my Corolla with around 200k on it. Always used standard 5/0W-20s in it and last time I was inside of it there was some light depositing and varnish, nothing crazy but it runs like a well-kept 200k mile engine. Seems to have alleviated a little bit of lifter tick in the 500-700 miles that it’s been in there so far. Seems like a good and high quality oil overall.
My Xterra would burn about 1.5 qts of oil between changes (I change every 3750 miles). Been using this stuff for about 18 months now and my oil consumption has gone down to just about 1/2 qt between changes, and my fuel economy has improved by about 1-2 mpg.
Legit! I’ve had great success with this oil. Eliminated tap, removed a ton of sludge from my engine(previous owner didn’t take care of car) and overall better performance and better gas mileage. I’ve done 9 oil changes since I switched to this oil and it has done wonders. When I first got the car, when I would change the oil, within 500 miles the oil on dipstick was dark as hell. Now after 9 oil changes the oil stays clear(ish) up to 3000 miles. And it has significantly reduced oil burn. I swear by this oil and I tell everyone I know about it. It’s not a gimmick! It really works!
I've seen good results online.
For 2 dollars more than the regular high mileage offering, I figured it was worth the risk.
I am doing a couple of oil changes with it (1k, 2.5k, 5k), and am hoping to see some evidence of it working on my 190k Mazda 3.
I have finished 1 oil change at 4k miles on a 2014 impreza that the previous owner religiously changed at 8k miles with cheap oil and cheap filters. My MPG improved a little and oil consumption went from 1 qt every 1k miles to 1 qt at 3k miles. I also commute 54 miles daily so the oil wasnt in the car that long. I "feel" like its doing something.
Running it in my Subaru outback 2.5 with 50k miles. I noticed a difference in the first 1k miles.
Better compression and better mileage (2 to 3 mpg!) a lot quieter!
Also running it in Subaru outback 2.4 turbo with 30k miles. A bit better. Not huge. But noticing.
Also a lot quieter!
I’ll do the 15k oil change soon with Toyota OEM 0w-16, which is made by M1 but has a much higher moly content than the regular retail M1 oil.
I'm trying out Valvoline Restore & Protect right now. I only ran oem Idemitsu before but started to have oil consumption issues with that oil the last two winters so I decided to switch.
Brought it in for 5k ToyotaCare at the dealership I bought it from. Used wrong engine oil (at least they listed wrong on the service sheet but promised they did use 0w20) - GRC is only model where 5k or 6 month oil changes are standard. 2500 miles if driven hard. Fucked up the trans oil I asked them to change - used wrong oil type. Fucked up tcase and rear diff oils. Found oil spilled on some pieces of the subframe. Of the 2 test drives they did doing the warranty covered alignment they had 10+ drive pulse hard acceleration /braking/cornering alerts on both 4 mile drives. I changed the engine oil, trans, tacsee, rear diff, cleaned oil they spilt after picking it back up. They said they'd corrected their errors only after I got Toyota corporate involved. I didn't trust them to do anything so corrected all myself.
