Engine oil Mobil or MOTUL

Mobil Engine oil

I'm apparently the least informed person here (never done an oil analysis), but FWIW I seem to be fine with Mobil-1 0w40 on a 996.2 with 208k miles.

Pros: fine with Mobil-1
Vehicle: Porsche
Mileage: 334745 km

MOTUL Engine oil

I use Motul 8100 EcoLite in mine. Paired with the appropriate Motul fluids in the trans and diff, and RBF660 in the brake lines.

Pros: appropriate fluids, good performance

Mobil Engine oil

Throughout the summer I was averaging a quart every 750-1000 miles, still using Mobil1 15w50 & Viscoplus. This winter it dropped back down to 1 quart every 500 miles, but as the weather has warmed up, my consumption seems to have decreased again. I think that had something to do with the oil, which was admittedly way too thick for cold weather. I would let the car warm up a couple minutes before driving because that oil is syrup in cold weather.

Pros: good consumption in summer
Cons: too thick for cold
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I used 0-40 mobil 1. It turned out pretty bad for me, I ended up using more oil than I ever had before. The car smelled like a friggin chainsaw with that stuff. The engine only had like 100k on it, but the blowby was horrible with 0-40. This was just my experience. I use mobil 10-40 now and no problems so far.

Pros: no problems so far
Cons: blowby was horrible
Mileage: 100000 km
