Engine oil MOTUL or Pentosin

During all my oil changes, I\u2019ve taken a sample and sent off to Blackstone for analysis.\n\nEven after 12k miles, there\u2019s still enough TBN left that I could have continued using it out to 15k miles.\n\nDissolved metals and other elements were still within universal engine norms so it wasn\u2019t like the sample was abnormally contaminated.

Pero nag stay ako sa motul since 2019.

General rule of thumb for mqb cars is if it\u2019s stock, run stock spec oil. If it\u2019s tuned run 5w40. Personally we run Motul 8100 xcess gen 2 5w40 in 3/4 cars.

I run Motul 10/30 in my motor, helps the piston slap on cold start from the forged pistons.

I use Pentosin Pento HP II fully synthetic Euro Spec 5w-40 oil (made by Fuchs Oil in Germany). According to test data I have read it is a much better oil than the Mobil 1 oil. I believe that the 5w-40 oil provides greater protection against oil vaporization, as the OM642 can run at elevated temperatures leading to high oil temperatures, which tends to break down the oil sooner.

I'm using motul 5w40 8100 x clean and it's great on my m54b22. I'm loosing little to no oil between changes

Looks fine to me, oil is relatively cheap, forget all the mileage crap and change it sooner if you are uncomfortable with the way it looks. I change my oil every 2000 miles, or whenever I go on or do heavy riding. I also switched over to Motul 7100 simply because it’s red and I can see exactly when it starts to discolor. A motorcycle mechanic told me the number one reason for engine failure is dirty oil so I started changing it frequently.

My 276k mile Xterra still trucks along with motul, every 3k miles.

I just use Kawasaki mineral oil or the Honda/Yamaha similar. Never had issues. Tried motul, liked the smell, same performance, more expensive, no point for me.

I blew up my first motor at the track on Motul.
