Engine oil Castrol or OEM Mazda

I always ran castrol gold motorcycle 20w50 on my Harley's.

I always go for Castrol Edge. Always have, always will

On my ( 2006 Mazda 3s 2.3l auto sedan 350k miles ) I don't burn a single drop of oil and the car runs great even the transmission and I've been sticking to 5W20 Castrol edge extended performance all year

2014 3, 0W-20 full synthetic (whatever major brand is cheapest) from brand new, every 7500 miles.

170k, runs like a top, burns not a single drop between changes, compression and fuel mileage exactly the same as new.

My car is at \~7600 miles. I changed the oil at 500, 5000 and then I'll change it again at 10,000. I used Castrol Edge 5w30 for the first two and I'll use it for the third oil change as well. I'm going to send a sample of the oil at the 10k change to Blackstone Labs to see how the Castrol is doing.

I would recommend the Castro Edge PROFESSIONAL 0w-20. Been using it in my wife’s LR4 since we got it and it was the consensus on best oil when I first did my research. It’s a little pricey but we’ve had zero engine issues with this.

we run castrol edge in our ‘04 FXT.

My rotary expert in north Texas recommended that I use 10-30 conventional oil. I personally prefer Castrol GTX

I tried using valvoline, that burned noticeably faster. But castrol high mileage has been pretty good.

I encountered something similar when I took my CE Turbo in for service a few weeks ago. The invoice said 0W20 and when I asked the service manual why they used the wrong oil they told me “oh our technicians know what oil to use, ignore that.” Needless to say I have zero confidence that the correct oil was used.
