Engine oil Castrol or Mannol

Castrol Engine oil

I use the Castrol Edge oil. I was doing 7500 mile oil changes and on this last one bumped that up to 10k miles. I sent out the oil for analysis to decide if I want to step up to an even larger interval. The comments left by the tester: 'Your CX5's engine looks good in analysis! Your results look really good by comparison after the 10,000 miles. Metals are all within good wear ranges, with iron even showing below-average steel wear. Nice! Titanium is just an additive in Castrol. Very nice! Go 12k miles next fill.' I will heed their advice and go 12,000 miles on this next one.

Pros: engine looks good, good wear ranges, below-average steel wear, recommended 12k miles
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 16093 km

It doesn't really matter as long as you get one that meets the specifications for your car which should be VW502 in your case. Mobil 1 0w40 and Castrol 5w40 both support that and are widely available for a reasonable price.

Pros: widely available, reasonable price

I’ve been using Castrol’s 5w-30 with the RN0720 spec (for DPF filtered diesels like yours and mine), it’s the best oil for thins engine. 100.000km doing oil changes every 10k and it’s as good as new, very good fuel economy and no leaks

Pros: very good fuel economy, no leaks
Vehicle: Renault Clio
Mileage: 100000 km

I’m stupid and like Castrol. Is it any better than the Walmart 5w30 synthetic? No. It just usually comes with a filter if I buy it with a coupon.

Pros: comes with filter
Cons: not better than Walmart
