Valvoline is the best and bang for the buck for me.
2013 Volvo XC 90. Owned since new, only used Penzoil Euro L formulation, all synthetic, 10W-30 and 143K miles later I had to get rid of her because I left the country. No engine issues at all.
Switched to Pennzoil Platinum for my current car and the engine is noticeably quieter (doesn't have the same mild clattery-ness from the valvetrain like with Mobil 1), and it doesn't burn either
I run Pennzoil almost exclusively. Especially, in my Dodge/Jeep because it meets the OE specifications.
I used to only use Mobil-1, now I use Penzzoil. I go with whoever has the best rebate at the time. they are all fine.
Generally agree with everyone here that it doesn't matter that much.. except for the relatively new Valvoline restore and protect. Seems like it actually does gradually clean out your engine and it's not just marketing bs
I’ve been running it in my 1992 Nissan D21 truck with over 200k for the past two oil changes and it’s gotten rid of a lifter tick it had for the past 20k miles. Runs a bit quieter too. Pretty good oil.
I've been using it for the past 3 oil intervals. I've seen a few oil analysis on the stuff with a few that came from FA24 engines and its wear protection is just as good or better than any GF6 oil out there. Its supposed to also meet the New GF7 oil specification as well that just came out in March.
I’ve had great luck with “Valvoline Restore and Protect” I have a Sportage with the same 2.4L, it burns 4-6 oz. every 3,000 miles. Used to burn 1 qt every 500 miles.
Valvoline is pure trash. Hardly any additives between any other lines of oil compared to competing brands.
