Liqui Moly 0W-20 LR for my F-Type-R. Doesn't use much oil, so cost is somewhat irrelevant.
Had an E63 that I recently traded with almost 200K miles, a few months ago I scoped my 1 and 5 cylinders and they had what I would consider normal to no wear. So as a DIY'r, here are my observations, This is a bigger issue in the States than it is in Europe. ... Keeping the engine clean is key. Frequent oil changes no more than 5k mi, using quality oil and fleece filters, formerly a Mobil 1 guy, now using LiquiMoly.
I used OEM Mazda Moly 0w20 oil for most of the last 8 years, until I started getting coolant showing up in my Blackstone used oil lab reports. Switched to Mobil1 5w30 high mileage this last time, 2,500 miles ago.
I used Mobil 1 with my Mustang. I like it for my timing chain and valve line. It’s very good. Car runs quiet.
Good old fashioned Mobil 1 for me. It wasn’t available during the pandemic so I used Valvoline Synthetic for a couple of years.
On my Giulia I've used 3 different 0W30s, and presently using Mobil 1 ESP 0W30.
Whatever weight the owner's manual says it takes, I'd use that. You'll definitely want to go with a high quality oil though. I personally use Liqui-moly... I have 192,000 on my 2012 A6, and she's still purring right along, a lot of which in my opinion has to do with the higher end oil.
Liquimoly 5W-40, every 7k kms or 6 months. I buy it myself and get it done by any garage
Liqui Moly 5w-40 every 7k. Do it myself in my driveway ????
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.
