Engine oil Shell or AMSOIL

Shell Engine oil

Oil consumption was the biggest issue when running 5w30. Changed to a 5w40, 10w30, and then got recommend 15w40 and oil consumption stopped

Pros: stopped oil consumption

Mileage: 363000 km

AMSOIL Engine oil

Amsoil Signature 5w-20 + K&N Gold oil filter (HP1017 for 4th gens, not sure about 5th) is arguably the single best combo if you can afford the oil. Your lobes will thank you.

Pros: single best combo
Cons: can be expensive
Part number: HP1017

AMSOIL Engine oil

The first thing I did was change the oil using a wix filter and Amsoil signature series 5w30. The verdict is that the oil has plenty of life left and could have easily run longer.

Pros: oil has plenty life
Mileage: 3500 km

AMSOIL Engine oil

I am a big fan of amsoil. I purchased a used F150 in 2012 . It had 80,000 miles. The first thing I did was I changed the engine oil, tyranny fluid, and front and rear end lubs to Amsoil. It now has 242,000 miles and just keeps on running.

Pros: just keeps on running
Vehicle: Ford
Mileage: 80000 km

I did have a 1982 diesel Jetta go 435,000 miles on oem int. shaft bearings. I had access to a lot of free Amsoil back then....so, that may have helped. However, I think it over-lubed the cylinder walls though. Rings weren't exactly what you would call 'tight.'

Pros: may have helped bearings last
Cons: over-lubed cylinder walls, rings were not tight
Mileage: 700065 km

im actually running that oil right now... I hate it tbh. 3,100 on the oil and it has allowed excess engine noise since day one, SUPER harsh cold starts, and now its burning through faster than the catrol I ran when I first got the car. a WHOLE QUART over 750 miles. the oil is thinner than piss going in, and it just doesnt stand up to what my engine can put out like Shell Rotella T6 has been doing...

Cons: excess engine noise, harsh starts
Vehicle: Audi A3
Mileage: 5000 km
