Shell Engine oil

Everyone has their preferences, at the end of the day it doesn't really matter, just change it regularly. I've used Mobil1, Pennzoil, LiquiMoly, Royal Purple, Rotella and probably a couple others I'm forgetting. No noticeable difference between any of them.

Pros: no noticeable difference
Vehicle: BMW

I did use the Shell T6 Rotella 5W40 for 4 OCI's and then got a misfire issue. When my mechanic was going thru the possible symptoms he asked what oil i used. When i told him it's a full synthetic deisel truck oil he shook his head and said that not a good idea. Too thick, and that could have an impact.

Cons: caused misfire issue, too thick for engine
Part number: T6 ROTELLA 5W40
