Owner reviews for engine oil

Castrol mangnetec gave me good performance but in city conditions it gave inconsistent fuel economies for me and under normal cruising speed 80-90 it performed really good. But for me it felt like reaching higher speeds above 100 felt slower compared to shell. Initial pick up of my car felt higher with this oil.

I have paid about $375 to drive 15,000 on my 2023 ioniq 6. I was paying $80-$100 a month in gas and a few hundreds dollars a year in oil changes.

for my Focus mk1 2002 1.6 i use Ford motorcraft at the last 2 changes but motul 8100 is totally fine, prev owner used it for 50-60k kms without issues(i know the owner, the mechanic, and i got a huge pile of paper as service history). odo is close to 280k. oil consumption is 0.5-1.0litre / 10000km depends how heavy my shoe is on highways. most important is oil spec and visco. any “good named” brand from valid source will work perfectly. i prefer motul and eneos, but this is just me, they do exactly the same: works no question. just change it regularly. i do mine at every 10-12k but i commute to work 100km 4 times a week, my oil barely operates cold.

I exclusively have used Lucas oil for my sportster motor for 5 years. The bottle looks cool, that's it. Full synthetic oil, no frills, cheap, and easy to get.

I do in my BMW. Oil is cheap compared to a re and re on a diesel no longer sold in country.

After some digging through some bimmer forums i saw people say viscosity is less of a factor than ensuring it's LL compatible. So the closest visosity i found in store was 5w-30 and i chose mobil 1 euro spec that was Ll-01 compatible.

The engine itself runs great with the 48K I put on it in the past 2.5 years with biannual oil changes (Pennzoil Ultra Platinum). Averaging 27 MPGs on 91 Octane hwy miles, 24-25 mpg in the city.

I use Motul 300V Power 5W-30 Engine Oil w/ESTER Core Technology. I have zero complaints.

That looks like you dropped a valve. Yes Lucy’s oil will help. It will lubricate the chamber so you can take out all the pieces.

I dont know about the newer 1.5t in the crv's, but im getting rid of mine because of the oil dilution issue. Sent out an oil sample and it came back with 8.2% dilution on oil that had 2k miles on it with 0 idle time. All the technical service bulletins have been done and \"nothing\" is wrong with the car.
