Owner reviews for engine oil

If you wanna try and solve the oil burning though, try using either Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 engine oil at your next oil change (and use it for top ups as well) or Valvoline Maxlife 5w-30. If you find your burning oil while driving, it’s probably gummed up piston rings in which case use the Restore and Protect- it’ll take a bit (4 consecutive oil changes) but it’s the only off the shelf oil available that will completely clean the rings and stop the burning.

I've been running Valvoline for the moly content. Not burning oil yet, fingers crossed.

I run 10w60 liquimoly gt1 full synthetic. Engine build 2019 till now no issues regular oil changes

em troca do óleo eu sempre usei 5w30 da Castrol, ate agora com 227.000kms com o mesmo motor só misturei 2 oub3 vezes no deposito da gasolina. Sempre foi o meu carro e nunca me deixou na estrada

I'm using motorcrack 15 40 in my 3.0 Taurus. It's been great for years

Fixed many ls engines with excessive oil burning by switching them to t4 rotella 15w-40. The rotella t4 flavor of it is a fantastic oil. If you're engine has good oil pressure and isnt burning oil then theres probably no need to for it but its not gonna hurt a thing. Gen 3 ls engines arent some super tight tolerance engine, i probably wouldn't put 15-40 in a motor that calls for 0-20 but your 5.3 will not care at all.

I used kendall 20w50 in race engines, though those saw 7-8 grand shifts, and lasted about a year.

I switched to 5w-30 instead of the factory spec 0w-20 and that slowed down my consumption. I use Amsoil to maximize protection with use of the "wrong" oil weight and I monitor wear with oil analysis and seem to have no change in wear from my 0w-20 use.

Pretty pricy imo, used it once then when I consulted with friends/a family member I’ve decided to switch to Mobile 5W-40, as this helps with the temps in my area living in a desert lol.

I've just drained this from my car after 6700 miles. I'm not very impressed TBH. The car burnt about a litre in that time, it usually doesn't use half that
