Rating 5.0

I personally use Red-Line products, and it's the absolute BEST products out there. Their 2 Stroke racing no smoke oil is OUTSTANDING and 2nd to none.

Pros: outstanding, best products
Cons: ridiculously too expensive

I have a BMW e36 and it is standard practice to run an extra quart of oil at the track to prevent oil starvation and lifter tick. I have been doing it for years with dozens of track days along with many other people I know with no issues.

Pros: prevent oil starvation
Vehicle: BMW

RED LINE Engine oil

I always used redline 5w50 on my S65 runs very well and redline has a great reputation of quality oil especially for its high performance cars. Takes less time to warm up too in low temperature climates.

Pros: runs very well, quality oil
Cons: takes less time to warm
Vehicle: BMW

2004 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi 255,000 miles Redline 5w30 full synthetic Wix Filter Lubegard Biotech with each oil change....... 5,000 mile intervals. Had a hemi tick when i purchased used in 2007 {off lease} with 32,000 miles on it. The Redline and lubegard have a hefty amount of moly in them which helps keep the insides slick and hemi tick at bay.

Pros: keeps hemi tick at bay
Cons: hemi tick initially present
Vehicle: Dodge RAM
Mileage: 255000 km

Been using the recommended bmw 5w-30 up until recently. However been having to top up 5L every month so the shop switched over to 10w-40 and I haven't seen that I needed to top up yet, but it has only been one and half months so far since the service.

Pros: less top up needed
Cons: high oil consumption
Vehicle: BMW

Engine was noisier with the mix vs. the previously used redline 5w40. Iron levels are up at 6.3 ppm/1000 miles Oil usage increased by 1/2 quart over the redline 5w40 TBN/TAN levels are worse than 5w40 at comparable mileage

Cons: Engine was noisier, iron levels up
Mileage: 5000 km
