Engine oil Castrol or ROWE

Castrol Engine oil

Generally, brand matters a lot. Amsoil, Mobil 1, and Castrol are all great.

I run Castrol in my older cars and Mobil 1 in newer cars that I care more about.

Pros: great oil
Vehicle: BMW

I use 5W40, Castrol Edge, has the 502/505 certification, if it doesn't don's use it. You can use the 0W40 European Formula as found at Walmart; is also 502 certified.. This is a good all-year 'round oil.

Pros: good all-year oil

Did another oil change today, and not a lot of consumption, still pulled 6.5 quarts out of the engine. Been using the Castrol Edge 5W40, and on the back has the 501, 502 and 505 certification.

Pros: low oil consumption
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I use Castrol syn in our VW because they call for Castrol syn. The only thing I've found is that our VW which called for Castrol Syn 0w20 always sounded clattery - until I switched to 5w30. I guess we are suffering a little MPG at the cost of a quiet engine but I won't use the 0w20 again.

Pros: quiet engine
Cons: suffering a little MPG

As someone mentioned the Castrol Edge 5w-40 (black bottle) that Napa carries is probably very close to VW OEM dealer oil. If it is good enough for Porsche I am sure it is more than good enough for VW.

Pros: good enough for Porsche

As much as I love to use Mobil One, I am going to stick with Castrol because VW dealership won't give me any credit for the Castrol in exchange for the Mobil one.

Vehicle: Volkswagen Phaeton
