vs
Oil filter LIQUI MOLY or Castrol
Reviews
I did Castrol Edge Euro Car 5W-40 with a Hengst oil filter, but if you want to spend a little extra most people recommend LiquidMoly
Pros: good engine protection
I was using Kirkland synthetic before for topping off and other American oils for oil changes I’m sure, but then I went to a euro auto shop and they switched out for a German filter and oil, LIQUI MOLY, and I got a significant increase in mileage.
Pros: significant increase in mileage
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I used the Castrol once, and have been buying the assembled kit from ECS ever since. At 73K miles, now, and change it every 7-8K.
Pros: good performance
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 73000 km
Honda OEM filter (Honda used Tokyo Roki oil filters for my bike ????) I used to buy Motul 7100 4T, however the price on that recently SKYROCKETED… it’s almost 80$cad before taxes for 4L (60$ for 1.05669Gal for you freedom folks).I refuse to pay that much for oil, so I now I buy Liqui-Moly Street 4T. And that’s basically the same price that the Motul USED to cost. 50$ (35 eagles, or whatever) I am aware that Motul 7100 has esters added to it, which Liqui-Moly Street does not, and that technically Motul 7100 is a better oil. But it’s not double the price better… I was willing to pay 60$cad, but not 80$cad lol.If I can find Bel-Ray EXP (another ester blend) at the shop, I’ll buy that too :P but Liqui-Moly seems to be much easier to find.
Pros: same price as Motul, easy to find
Cons: price increase, no esters
Vehicle:
Honda
