Engine oil Mobil or MOTUL
Mirage HB din unit ko so far from stock oil (0W20) nag Motul H100 ako na 5W30 so far good so good naman siya. Para kasing mas ideal satin yung 5w30 kasi wala naman snow. Na notice ko lang is yung vibration and fuel efficiency niya na medyo tolerable naman.
Other vehicles, I ruin normal Mobil 1 until about 80-100K miles and switch to high mileage. Put over 200K on a '04 Civic Si on all Mobil 1 and oil analysis came back great every time.
i use motul 5w40 and i have an S model. I found that the mobile 5w40 that was recommended broke down faster than i think it should. 0 issue with motul for last 3-4 years
I used the mobil synth high mileage 5w-30 for years in a 2001 accord lx 4cyl with 200k thru 274k miles when i sold it. Changed it about every 4k
My Tiguan and Passat all function perfectly with Mobil1 5W40, and I have used this oil for 15 years.
I found a really good deal on M1 ESP 0w30, about half the price of the LM. ESP is a good choice for modern DI motors for it's low volatility base stock, less oil vapor in your intake and better for cats. ESP is as good as it gets imo.
If you’re going from 15W-40 to 10W-40 the viscosity is the same. If you tekan a lot, suggest you try out something from Mobil, Penrite or Motul . They’re expensive for a reason.
I personally prefer MOTUL 7100 10W50.
My changes have generally been religious at 5k and that didn’t save my GTI from losing compression in cyl3 at 37k untuned miles it suffered 15% leakdown vs the other 3. That car got M1 0w-40, tried and true stuff, so you just never know.
I used US Mobil 1 0W-40 in my old 1.8T (mk4). I used it for two changes (finished off a box) and always found it was burnt at only 3k miles. You could smell it as soon as I pulled the dipstick out.
