Engine oil PENNZOIL or MOTUL

I run penzoil ultra platinum. I’ll spend the extra money to know that I might get a few more hours out of my gen.

I am currently using Motul 8100 x-clean gen2 5w-40 (good on DPF) for the last 7000km (I think) without any issues. This oil should provide better lubrication, especially if driven hard and during high temps.

I’ve been using the 300V , absolutely love the feeling of this oil but decided to switch since it’s a true race oil & the intervals needing very frequent changes. After only 1000 miles of street riding , I’ve tested the oil & it began to sheer from 18 cst @ 100c down to 15 cst @100c .

Luckily modern oils are developed with this in mind. Costco/walmart/amazon oil is made by the same company, Warren oil. I think most people consider penzoil ultra platinum as one of the best.

I been using Motul 8100 X-clean EFE 5W-30 Synthetic Oil and is working fine at the moment with OEM filter.

I use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w-30. It’s hasn’t failed me yet and I’ve done multiple track days

Pennzoil ultra platinum 5w-30 in my 2016. Will use it in wife's 2025 when warranty is done.

Motul x-clean plus. Less noise and softer engine run. I'm using it in all my TDI's and X5 35d.

Honestly, any brand should be okay as long as you change your oil every 5k miles. Personally I run Penz ultra plat. I never burn oil with it and my engine sounds quieter than it did w/ Mobil 1.

If you have ever rebuilt an engine that used Pennzoil, you would never use it again. The top of the head will be covered in carbon.
