Reviews of VALVOLINE parts For Business

I keep this in the trunk of my mk7. Haven’t had to use it, but I feel comfortable using it in emergencies
One oil that seems to work from all the videos I've watched for cleaning varnish is the Valvoline Restore and Protect.
I use this on my Hyundai Elantra for the past 100k miles ... It's already at 200k and the engine still feels new ... I use Valvoline for everything including power steering ... Valvoline syn blend is a great oil option ...
Valvoline protect and restore has more detergents than any other I believe to clean out thew gunk. I've been running it in my car for 3 oil changes now.
Have a look at Valvoline restore and protect which is also for high mileage vehicles. Also grab a few oil filters, as the product does such a good job, you'll want to replace the oil and filter, do a few good long drives in the first weeks/month, replace the filter, do it again over the next few months, replace the filter, and keep that for the rest of the year ( maybe check the filter just in case ), and you'll see just how well it does.
I've seen lots of videos showing the Valvoline restore and protect oil helping to clean engines. If you go that route I'd recommend replacing the oil filter after 500 miles then again at 2500 miles to keep the filters new for any gunk that gets freed up.
Use Valvoline Restore and Protect oil if possible
I went to Valvoline once, oil pan emptied itself onto their floors the moment I started the engine. Joking aside I think it's perfectly fine to go to Valvoline, I go there often bringing my own oil and filter, that way I know it's the right oil and it's good quality stuff.
I learned this the hard way switching to Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W-30, destroyed my bearings just like you.
