Engine oil LIQUI MOLY or Shell

After completing the 1000 km run in and going through the first service where I got Cepsa xtar 10w40 oil, the gearbox remained hard, compared to my previous F650 bmw.

Did some digging regarding engine oil and how I could improve my gear shifting experience, engine smoothness and durability and the choice was either Motul 7100 or LiquiMoly Street Race 10w40. Decided on Liqui Molly and definitely I am noticing much smoother gear shifts and maybe even less vibration. I am surprised. The change is definitely noticeable.

5w40 liquidmoly

Imo Mobil 1 is mid grade at best. Liqui-moly is the only thing I’ve used for the last 5 years, I too started with Mobil 1, then switched to liquimoly (same weight) and the engine was immediately quieter, smoother, and ran cooler.

900 rs shell engine oil for my scooty. Amazing. Smooth roses amd better mileage.

my 2017 Passat got totaled in a accident this week, was at 205062 miles running strong off Liqui Molygen 5w-40.

All three I ran Rotella T6 5w-40. I ran 5K oil changes with OEM or WIX filters. All had Blackstone oil analysis done, and all passed every time with flying colors.

5k with Rotella T6.

20 years driving modified STIs with zero issues.

Take liquimoly for instance, they only have certain oils that meet the VW 508 00 spec but many of their oils are the same weight. None of which will cause your engine to explode if you use them.

Got an oil change @ 94.1k using liqui moly 5w40. Low oil Light popped up at 96.4k. (Added 1 quart). Now I’m at 96.6k. Checked again and the bar is just one level under the “max” Why am I burning oil so quick?

It’s not any better than Walmart Castrol, just double if not triple the price. I’m 160k tuned!!!
