I use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum because it is GF-6A and API SP full synthetic motor oil which are the latest and greatest standards.
I use PENNZOIL PLATINUM but brand is up to you !
Pennzoil ultra premium is the best overall considering price, pennzoil euro is even better if they make it in your w-viscosity rating.
amsoil is the best period but is also expensive. recommended for commercial driving where you run your car to the limit racking up hundreds of miles per drive.
A lot of old guys recommend mobil 1. Mobil 1 loses to even walmart supertech, amazon basics oil, valvoline, etc. in the wear metal tests so that's my reason for avoiding that one
I’m running Penzoil ultra platinum 5W-30. The instructor I drove with said he runs 5W-30 in his gen 1 BRZ track rentals.
I use Valvoline VR1 in my street car and whatever full synthetic that is on sale for my Taurus and Titan.
Have an 07 Silverado bought new first oil change switched over to Mobil one used that until one of the hurricanes hit Louisiana and started having a problem getting it so switched over to Pennzoil full synthetic. Truck has 368000 on it and seems to be still going strong so I’d say it’s your choice.
I use Pennzoil Platinum. Is it the best? Who knows, but I’ve been using it for years on several vehicles and never had an issue.
I’m using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, really helped how effortless my acceleration is and gas mileage.
Just swapped over to Valvoline Restore and Protect in my N52 BMW daily driver with 215k miles. I drive a lot and am taking before and after photos inside the valve train. I have exclusively used Castrol Edge A3/B4 for years so I will have a true comparative.
I tried to use the Pennzoil high mileage full synthetic the most, but if I didn't have the bit extra for it, I'd get Walmarts generic full synthetic high milage. I always used a Fram full synthetic filter too, they were the only ones around me that were better quality and decent price for the time. Mine got to 200k no problems!
