Engine oil Kendall or PENNZOIL

I use pennzoil euro spec, I only go through about a quart between 5k oil changes.

I've been alternating between the OE Castrol (with the free maintenance) and Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5W-40 (502 compliant and recognized/certified by Audi/VW) in 5,000 mile intervals. I've had both tested, and the TBN is higher on the Pennzoil and the viscosity always perfect (Castrol tends to read thinner than 5w-40 on the samples I've sent in for analysis).

I use 0W-20 Pennzoil Platinum for our 2013 Accord Sport.

I use to use Castrol Syntec 5W40 (what the tig came with) and all I could get here. Last spring I opened my own shop and can get Kendall 5W40 Euro and started using that as it is 502 approved. I found it made the engine run smoother and quieter. My customers have noted the same.

My car runs full synthetic, no additives. I find a 2.0 engine oil filter mount swap(from cartridge to screw on), royal purple filter, and penzoil ultra/platinum are an amazing combination.

If you want it quiet and smooth, run 10w-40. If you want best mpg or live in the cold 1/2 the year, run 5w-30. 10w-30 is a-ite in many cases. It'll burn less than 5w-30....generally.

I use Pennzoil Ultra 5W-40 European formula in both of my GTI's and use only oem filters (which are very good btw).

Kendall hands down makes the best dinosaur oil..... I run it in my BMW 2002 and my 94 2.0 ....

That is my personal favorite so far. Use or burn less than anything else I have tried, and I swear the engine sounds quieter. Previously used Castrol, Amsoil, Mobil 1.

I just picked up some Penzoil synthetic 5w-40 today and right on the front of the bottle it says "Meets BMW and Mercedes requirements" a little search on back label listed all the specs and all VW specs listed above are on the back of the bottle.
