Engine oil Castrol or RAVENOL

On my previous car, a VW Golf 7 2.0 TDI I used to change the oil (Castrol 5W30 Long Life) every 12000km.

Had an 02 explorer with the 4.0 that had 286,000 and still running like a champ when I sold it. It was on its second transmission and everything in the vehicle was falling apart but that motor never once had an issue. Regular maintenance and oil changes every 10 to 15k using Castrol GTX fully synthetic

If you can get your hand on it try some Ravenol with UVSO, it's like bottled Magic. Engines run so smoothly with it, father in law thought the engine was off with it.

I put some Castrol 0w20, no issues.

Castrol mangnetec gave me good performance but in city conditions it gave inconsistent fuel economies for me and under normal cruising speed 80-90 it performed really good. But for me it felt like reaching higher speeds above 100 felt slower compared to shell. Initial pick up of my car felt higher with this oil.

I have a 2012 civic with 220k miles still use Castrol 0w-20. I've been using it since 500 miles switched to the high mileage stuff around 100k

Castrol Edge is usually cheaper than Mobil 1 and will be as good.

Can use 5w30 or 5w40.

0w40 or 5w40 will give you slightly better engine protection if you drive at high rpms more often.

I wouldn't use anything cheaper or different than those two really. You don't need more expensive oils than those either.

Castrol edge is just fine, even the cheapest one is likely better than whatever was good 20 years ago.

Daca e motor de la VW atunci recomandarile mele ar fi Liquimoly Longlife III, Motul 8100 X-Clean+, Mobil 1 ESP.

Reprezentantele folosesc in general Castrol Edge LL. Dar eu nu prea sunt impacat cu brand-ul asta.

De ce nu ulei original si tocmai Ravenol ulei de balamale
