Engine oil MOTUL or OEM Subaru

Motul 4T 7100 10w40.

Engine works like a charm, gearbox changes gears effortlessly and the oil smells nice as a bonus.

I’m in MD and use Motul 5w30 X-clean EFE

Yes, it is good advice. When a new engine is breaking in, there is a lot more wear metals. It's not uncommon to see metallic flakes or shimmer in the oil during your first oil change. Parts wear/bed in. That's why there is a break-in period on almost, if not all new cars.

I did my first oil change at 1k miles on my BRZ; I saw a lot of metal shavings come out of the oil. The oil also had a metallic shimmer to it. This is totally normal, but I want to get rid of all of that so it is not circulating around the engine post-break in period.

I started using motul 10w40 after my apache rtr 180 crossed 50k kms. It gave the old engine required smoothness and the engine feels stress free.

I run X-Cess 5w-40, seems great. Takes a little longer to heat up than 5w-30 but I imagine you’d want the high thermal stability it offers in your location.

Motul has been phenomenal for me

Only used Motul 300V 5w30 or 5w40 since I bought the car new in 2009. Today I'm on 178k kilometers and still on the first chain and chain tensioner. No rattle, no oil consumption or what so ever.

I use Motul the best IMHO

I use Motul 300v 5w40. I also drift so depending on what you’re doing it could be overkill. Before I just used Royal Purple 5w30 or Castrol full synthetic 5w30.

I used Motul with ester. 15W-50 I think? It was for a 16’ Continental GT. Seemed to work fine.
