Engine oil Castrol or PENNZOIL

Castrol Engine oil

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.

Pros: anti sludge properties
Cons: lowers overall cost

Castrol Engine oil

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.

Pros: no difference in running
Vehicle: Toyota Echo

PENNZOIL Engine oil

I flip between Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Motul X-Clean both in 5W-30 depending on if I order ahead of time online or just go to the store/dealership for parts. Both have been good, just make sure to keep up on maintence schedules and you'll be fine with pretty much anything

Pros: Both have been good
Vehicle: Subaru

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.

Pros: engine runs smoothly
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 358881 km

Castrol Engine oil

Smedia had a video about this and he had more wear with less miles using Motul over Castrol in a Blackstone report. So for me just the convenience and price of Castrol edge I'd pick it over Motul. Knowing it had less wear wear was the nail in the coffin of buying overpriced and often several year old Motul.

Pros: convenience and price
Cons: more wear, overpriced
Vehicle: Subaru

It is an oil from one of the lowest ranges of Castrol.

It is a 100% mineral oil, which is not good and therefore, in addition to greasing, cleaning and cooling less, it has a much shorter useful life, it needs more frequent changes, it is an oil how little/nothing is worth it for a motorcycle whatever it is.

Cons: shorter useful life
