Castrol in my daily driver. The daily would have a slight ticking when warming up with other brands, not with Castrol, so I been using it for over 100k with no issues.

Pros: no ticking when warming
Cons: slight ticking with others
Mileage: 100000 km

Have a look on Amazon they do some good deals on oil, I normally stick it in my basket and wait for it to drop.

My old car was Castrol 5w30 Magnatec, £28.50 for 4l on Amazon £43.99 from euro.

Pros: good deals on oil

Walmart carries jugs of Castrol Edge SPT 0w40 A3/B4 for much less than quarts at AutoZone

Run it in my R, wife's GTI, and even ran it in a WRX I used to have. It's good oil, the analyses I've sent in over the years don't lie!

Pros: good oil, analyses don't lie

Castrol Edge 5W-30 for me. I live in Vegas where it barely gets under 30 degrees in winter even so it's a better oil for the hot climate in live in

Pros: better oil for hot climate
Vehicle: Hyundai

AMSOIL Engine oil

Any major brand of the correct rating and viscosity will work.

That being said, I have an 05 that was used as a DD for 12 years. Short trips, 3 days a week. After 12 years and 47K miles, I added a aftermarket supercharger. Put another 20K on it, including trips to the drag strip and track days.

I then had it rebuilt with forged internals because I wanted higher boost and more power. When the engine was pulled apart and measured. There was no wear. The cylinders were still within factory specs as was the crank.

I had used Amsoil SS 0W-20 the whole time.

Pros: no wear, factory specs
Mileage: 47000 km
