Engine oil Mobil or MOTUL
Motul 8100 X Clean 5W30, used by reputable specialist Mini garages here in the UK and is in my 2018 JCW.
I do 20k miles oil change interval on my RAV4. I use Mobile 1 extended performance and Fram Ultra filter. No problem at all
I use Mobil 1 ESP X2.
Available at Walmart.
It is approved by Mercedes and VW, it also meets the BMW requirement but is not approved by them.
For such a climate as Mexico I'd stay away from 0w-20 and go at least to 0w-30 or 5w-30, last one being the OEM afaik.
Tbf my specialized mechanic put 5w-40 LL-04 Motul in mine for years and it's been blissful.
Motul gamit ko ramdam ko ang arangkada at tahimik makina.
Shell Advance Scooter naman d ko ramdam yung arangkada nya kasi medyo may delay at ambilis mag bawas ng langis. Unlike sa motul na low oil consumption lang sya d sya ganun kalakas mag bawas ng langis.
I just go to Walmart and buy the big jug of mobile 1 high mileage engine oil and the most expensive oil filter I can find and just do the oil change in my driveway.
I use the Mobil 1 just like the sticker Porsche put on your car…
I've tried various combinations that include the mix of m1 5-40 with 5-50 but have now for many years kept it simpler w/ Mobil 1 5-50 every five thousand miles. It purrs as one would expect from a 195,000 mile 996 Turbo.
I use Motul 8100 5w-30. But I've heard the Ravenol is good, I think it's what one of the 86 racing series runs.
I also tried Ravenol's MT fluid, and I'm thinking I'm going back to it after the RedLine.
Yea mobile 1 is among the bottom end of full synthetics. Even the Walmart cheapest supertech and valvoline will slightly beat mobile 1 in reducing metal wearing.
