I've been using Castrol Edge 5w-40 for years and have had good results, but wondering what others are using. I initially used Mobil1 0w-40 but got a lot of lifter noise which disappeared after switching to Castrol.
Castrol 5w30 high mileage performance, keeps the sucker in tiptop shape
My 25 year old Camry requires 5W-30 and I use Castrol Edge. I also put 1 litre of Castrol GTX 15W-40 oil into the mix - it's supposed to have anti sludge properties and also lowers the overall cost.
From my experience with a Toyota echo; does not matter the brand, only the type. My echo was a 10w40 semi synthetic. once she started consuming a little more oil, I was then just filling her up with any 10w40 semi synthetic I could afford. There was no difference of her running on Castrol vrs the mixed bag of what it ended up with, as I always put Castrol as my oil of choice for a complete change.
Have used a few brands, I think it’s running Castrol 5w40 right now.
Castrol 5w40 Euro spec, my car runs better on that than 5w30
I use just regular old Castrol Edge full synthetic 0W-40 in my 2012 Jetta year round, currently has 156k miles on it (251km).
I used both wrong spec oil and wrong weight oil on my 06 Rabbit 2.5 for about four years. I was an idiot. However, nothing ever happened. I'm at 223,000 miles and the cams look brand new, engine runs smoothly.
I personally have used the RN17FE 0W-20 (Renault branded Castrol GTX bottles) for 10k km after the innitial oil that was filled in the factory (I don’t know which one was filled in factory). I haven’t noticed any better fuel economy but that can be tough to determine because I drove the car mainly through the winter and did more shorter trips than the original factory first fill oil that I drove with during spring and summer.
I hated the castrol, I could tell the engine was louder with it compared to Pennzoil.
