I use Castrol as it’s the OEM product and is cheap if you buy direct from Ford.
I *always* find Pennzoil Platinum on sale for like $25-ish/ 5qt at either O'Reilly's, NAPA, or Walmart around the time I go to do my oil change. $50-ish total oil changes, never had any issues with any of my cars.
My more modern VW runs Castrol EDGE OE 5W-40 full synthetic. That's what my VW dealer in Utah fills cars with.
I use Castrol EDGE Supercar 5w50. Oil change 7000km ????. no problems! Mileage 150 000km . Car from 2014!!
I jumped on the Pennzoil Ultra Plat bandwagon and have no complaints.
I actually switched from Mobil1 Full Synthetic in my Tacoma, which I have been running since new, to Penzoil Platinum based on some recommendations and investigation. At least in the case of a 2015 Tacoma with less than 60,000 Miles I noticed that my valve train is a lot quieter now.
300.000km - oil: Castrol Edge 5W-30 and a new vortex breather - without oil consumption
315.000km - oil: fuchs titan 5W-30 and the old vortex breather - around 1L oil consumption
330.000km - oil: mannol 5W-30 and the old vortex breather - around 1L oil consumption
345.000km - oil: eneos 5W-30 and a filter type breather - without oil consumption
My 13 Ram 5.7, use only 5w20 penz ultra plat, with lubeguard biotech and boss oil filter. I have the truck tuned, turned off the cyl deactivation since it had 30k miles, zero tick. But, I feel the oil pump makes more difference for the hemi tick issue. My truck has a good oil pump, 60s and 70 psi on freeway and startup.
have used Castrol 5w-40 as VW calls for and change at 5000 mile intervals. Now at 129K, it still uses one or two quarts between changes and performs as well or better than new.
Mine eats Castrol Syntec 5w40 like it's going out of style as well.
