I use Castrol for the Nexon and Punch. The Safari uses Shell. Shell and Castrol are by far the best I've come across. Shell is much much better for the cold weather, by what I've observed.

Pros: better for cold weather

Run Rotella in my 80’s and 90’s BMW’s often. They seem to like it, and sometimes it’s cheap at Walmart.

Pros: seem to like it
Vehicle: BMW

I ran diesel oil in my '94 yukon for the entirety of it's 260k miles. My dad always said the same. The zinc was better for it. When I got rid of it, it was still running fine and driving fine.

Pros: running fine, driving fine
Mileage: 418429 km

FUCHS Engine oil

I've posted my UOAs on TDIClub and BITOG. The factory fill was additive depleted at 5400 miles. The Fuchs 507.00 in the next fill was good for 7-7500 miles. It might have gone longer, but I changed it out in advance of a long trip. Bottom line is that preliminary evidence is that the 507 oils are inadequate for extended OCIs in the 3.0L motor.

Pros: good for 7-7500 miles
Cons: additive depleted at 5400
Mileage: 8694 km
