Engine oil Castrol or MOTUL
Dont use the cheap stuff. Liqui moly or Castrol!
This is what I use… with a Fram synthetic oil filter.
I have been using 5w-20 for more than 3 years on my Accord 2004 (330K) and 2003 (230K). I have no issues with both and the engines runs the same as before using other oils like Castrol Magnatec.
But as a fellow 7.5 owner i switched to 15w-40 when going stage 1 because where i live temps regularly even in winter are around 98-105 degrees and i was finding i had to top off the oil every 1,200 miles, since the switch to the thicker oil ive done 2,500 and the level is exactly the same
I personally prefer MOTUL 7100 10W50.
Castrol Euro in my mk6. It meets the VW spec according to the bottle. I've been using only that for 9+ years, changing oil at 10k miles or 1 yr, zero sludge, zero problems, original turbo, good compression, good oil pressure, etc. IMO it's very good oil.
I highly recommend Castrol Edge 0w20 and Castrol edge 0w20 high mileage oil for your vehicle which requires 0w20 508.00 oil. 508.00 burns a lot. And I looked the additive in it. It is very cheap mixture. When I use regular Castrol edge it gives less oil consumption. Highly recommended for you.
Castrol gtx 20w50
I live in Oregon. I run 20w50 valvoline vr1 or Castrol GTX.
I tried using valvoline, that burned noticeably faster. But castrol high mileage has been pretty good.
Motul 8100, was using mobil 1 but had problems with it blowing past the rings during high rpm’s and getting into the intake
