Engine oil Mobil or Castrol

Castrol Europeans 0W40 is my typical go-to but Mobil-1 is great, get whichever is cheaper.

I have been using Mobile 1 in my 2002 X5 3.0 and my 2001 Z3 2.5i forever. Both vehicles have about 185,000 miles each with no major repairs.

Personally on my half million mile M54 E46 I use Castrol edge high mileage 5W-30 with a ok filter; mobile one or the stp extended life filter as those two typically come with the red o rings which tend to last much longer than the black ones.

BMW has been endorsing Castrol since the early 1990's and I have to say that I've never had anything but good results using Castrol. I think it is a great oil and seems to do really well in BMWs.

My sprinter is deleted so I'm running 0w40 European car formula.

Hey! I had two Octavias with the 1.6 TDI: the mk2 (I sold it) and the mk3 (the current one). Personally, I prefer Castrol Edge 5W-30. On the mk2 I once used Ravenol and the engine was a bit noisier compared to when I used Castrol.

Mobil One 0w-40 is a great oil for these cars

I've used 7100 Motul forever... and I switched to Mobile 1 and im happy with my choice. Both 10w 40.

Usually, motor oil goes bad because the additive packs that are in the oil get burned off or used up. I'd imagine that this new Mobil1 Annual Performance has more additive packs than what standard Mobil1 has but it's probably able to go that far because you're going to have to add additional oil that gets burned off because every car burns oil.

I use to use Mobil 1 Full Syth. and it was a mistake the \"knocking.pinging\" noise will also reduce using the right grade oil. Learn from my past experiences.
