Turbo ppl love it due to the shearing factor. Blows M1 out of the water for down here in Florida. Oil consumption went down in my 2.0T when using it.

Pros: good shearing factor, reduced oil consumption

Vehicle: Volkswagen

I run Mobil 1 5w30 and still change it every 5k. I could probably bump it up to 7500 or 10k but don't because I do it myself, and it isn't a huge cost or inconvenience to do it early.

Pros: easy to do early

Vehicle: Toyota 4runner

Mileage: 5000 km
