Shell Engine oil

I run Shell Rotella T6 15W-40 diesel engine oil in my Versys. It has all the ratings necessary for a motorcycle engine and a wet clutch, and it is a quarter of the cost of bike oils.

Pros: quarter of the cost

Mobil Engine oil

Anyway, the only 508.00 spec oil I've found locally has been this Mobil 1 ESP X2 at Wally World. (walmart) Anyone else running it? Anyone seen any deep analyses? I put lots of Mobil 1 Delvac through 2 TDIs totalling 485k miles, so I'm willing to bet on this Mobil 1. I like being able to pick it up locally, and at only $28 for 5 quarts!?

Pros: easy to pick up locally
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 40000 km

Mobil Engine oil

I use either Mobil 1 ESPx2 European Car Formula 0W-20 available at Walmart or Valvoline Full Synthetic European Vehicle 0W-20 from NAPA. Both are approved VW 508 00 oils and can be cheaper than the oil at the dealer.

Pros: cheaper than dealer oil

Mobil Engine oil

I've always put Mobil1 High Mileage in my 2013 Scion tC, IIRC Mobil1 is what Toyota uses at the factory. I had a heavy upper oil pan gasket leak that's largely stopped since switching to high mileage oil.

Pros: leak largely stopped
Cons: heavy oil pan leak

I'm running Amsoil 5w40 or Castrol Syntec 5w40. I ran Mobil1 10W30 a few times and I heard too much valve noise. When I opened the oil cap after driving around on the freeway it was smoking..which I'm not all that happy about. So I stopped using this oil.

Cons: too much valve noise, smoking
