I've been using Ravenol VMP for the past year, reviews show it as a high end oil. Lots of VAG tdi people swear by it here in Europe.
Pros: high end oil
Share:
Just a suggestion to other Sebring drivers. I know there are lots of "the best oils" out there, but they are not made for this kind of punishment, they will sheer apart.
Pros: good for racing
Cons: not discount brand
I went down a rabbit hole with engine oil a while back and settled on ravenol. I get that most top tier oils are good enough but my issue was I was consuming more oil than I'd like with my f10 m5 and since switching, it is consuming considerably less oil
Pros: less oil consumption
Vehicle:
BMW
Since my car has 120k km its high time to replace it.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Touran
Mileage: 120000 km
Ravenol is one of the few manufacturers that offers synthetic oils (not all, only those labeled "vollysint").
Pros: offers synthetic oils
Olio sempre e solo Ravenol (mi sono studiato le tds di una marea di olii e questo \u00e8 il migliore, lo acquisto sul loro sito tedesco)
Pros: \u00e8 il migliore
I can recommend Ravenol 5W-40 NDT oil, it's basically the best oil for the N57 (I assume also for the N47)
Pros: best oil
Vehicle:
BMW
If you can get your hand on it try some Ravenol with UVSO, it's like bottled Magic. Engines run so smoothly with it, father in law thought the engine was off with it.
Pros: engines run smoothly
In the end I went with the spec - RAVENOL VMP SAE 5W-30
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Ravwnol e cea mai mare mizerie.
Cons: cea mai mare mizerie
Vehicle:
Audi A4
