Engine oil Kendall or PENNZOIL

I’m using Pennzoil Euro 5W40.

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum has been doing well in my UOAs.

Kendall GT1 10W30 - Volvo filter 1275810

Done every 5k miles by my local Volvo specialist because that's their default and I like it to be checked out frequently. It's the oil they use. 179k miles

I've switched to Pennzoil Platinum Pure Plus. It's cheap, it's easy to find, and it's got those nice lubricating additives that our hot-running FA20 motors and Garrett turbos like.

FA20s show regular positive results with Pennzoil Platinum PurePlus.

I switched to Kendall GT-1 20w-50 high performance and I highly suggest it. You can get 12 quarts shipped to your door from Amazon at a good price.

I run Pennzoil Platinum in mine (same engine) which is another popular oil. 5w-30 btw.

I use Castrol or Pennzoil most of the time (N/A engine or I'd use Rotella) haven't had any issues with it.

I have been driving for upwards of 50 years and have always had good luck with Pennzoil products. Pennzoil makes a 5W-40 full synthetic Platinum Euro which meets the VW 502 spec and has gotten good reviews from GTI owners.

I'm running Pennzoil Ultra Euro L 5w30. It's a low saps oil that's vw 504/507 approved. However, because of the high sulphur in US fuels, you can't run this oil longer than 5k miles. A low saps/low volatility oil will greatly reduce intake valve deposits proven by lubrizol.
