Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or OEM FORD

LIQUI MOLY Engine oil

155k was using LM molygen and recently switched to LM leichtlauf. Three oil changes with the leichtlauf. The difference for me was i was topping off with the molygen vrs the leichtlauf never needed to top off between changes.

Pros: less topping off needed
Cons: topping off with molygen
Mileage: 155000 km

If changing oil at 15k kms interval has served you well for 2 lakh kilometers, then I'd recommend sticking to it instead of switching to an oil with long service life. 30k kms oil change interval claim is a big stretch. I've used LiquiMoly 5w-40 with my Polo 1.2L TDI. Drove it close to or may be more than 20k kms over the course of 3 years until the check engine light came on. Immediately changed to OEM engine oil and for some reason the check engine light went away. Except with LiquiMoly, I've always changed engine oil at 15k kms or 1 year whichever was earlier. This is what my car's manufacturer recommends and I'll follow it even if I use LiquiMoly again.

Pros: served well for 2 lakh kilometers, OEM engine oil works
Cons: 30k kms oil change interval claim is a big stretch, check engine light came on

My 2013 GTI I believe has been running off of 5w-40 since I bought it. Supplied a shop with European 5w-40 and it still ran fine. Now it's winter, 6-12F outside and I just got the oil changed at a local drive and shine to 5W30 full synthetic and the GTI is running like garbage! RPMs are staggering all over when it goes into neutral, instead of 750RPMS it likes 1k to be normal. It just overall feels wrong.

Cons: running like garbage
Vehicle: Volkswagen
