If you can use Redline 5w30, go right ahead. You will not have an issue. I call Redline the guarantee oil. I can pretty much guarantee that you will never have the dreaded lifter tick. It has been known to quieten a ticking engine too.

Pros: guaranteed lifter tick prevention
Cons: can be expensive

RED LINE Engine oil

It's recommended by Nissan to use ester based oil. I use redline 5w-30. Pricey but I feel the difference and motor runs flawless imo

Pros: motor runs flawless
Cons: pricey
Vehicle: Nissan

RED LINE Engine oil

Using Redline 5w-50 on my E90 M3. it's supposed to have a similar viscosity at high temps as most 60wt oils. Comes up to operating temp faster and doesn't overheat.

Pros: high quality, doesn't overheat
Vehicle: BMW

RED LINE Engine oil

The best oil to use is the RedLine full synthetic two-stroke Racing oil. Modern full synthetic two stroke oils are way better than older oils and work great.

Pros: works great, way better
Vehicle: Saab

Pentosin Engine oil

Pentosin is fine, Mobil 1 is fine, Castrol, whatever. I put Mobil 1 in my racecar but castrol in my daily because it burns oil and I want a heavier weight that I can't find Mobil 1 in. Pentosin or LiquiMoly are good, but don't put too much thought into it.

Pros: Pentosin is fine
Vehicle: BMW

I use redline hp 5w30 for my n54. 7500 mi intervals. I’m at 113k miles currently. At about 90k I send my oil off to blackstone for an oil analysis. Came back in very good shape and they indicated I could easily go to a 10k mi interval.

Pros: very good shape
Mileage: 181126 km
