Engine oil RED LINE or RAVENOL

RED LINE Engine oil

Redline recommended 10w-40 Full Synthetic for my 1.8 solid lifter JH turbo application and the tech guy suggested modern synthetics don't cause seal leakage (like OG synths of 25 years ago) and holds up way better than the 40w rating in hot temps and protects much better when cold than even the current crop of Castrol 20/50 dino oil I was running. I swapped over the M81 to the same Redline oil and have not yet noticed any new oil leaks yet.

Pros: no seal leakage, better hot/cold protection
Vehicle: Volkswagen

RAVENOL Engine oil

So, I recently drove 2 oils: NGN Emerald 5w30 and Ravenol VST 5w40. I watched the oil temperature displayed on the route book display in different modes, but there were no problems with the temperature.

Pros: no temperature problems

I bought this unusual oil made in Germany Ravenol NDT 5W-40...my truck has never sounded or performed better. I was hearing a little bit of top end noise at idle and that's complete quieted with this oil, as well as throttle response and overall smoothness of the engine and turbocharger increased greatly.

Pros: quieted top end noise, increased smoothness
Cons: expensive

Nothing but the best. I personally use Ravenol. I have a bew and very particular about our because of cam issues. I would only substitute this for liquid Molly.

Pros: nothing but the best

I just ordered the ravenol after watching a youtube channel (sergiu gabor) where ravenol yielded the best results of simulated wear indication tests against various oil brands.

Pros: best results of wear
