Engine oil Shell or MOTUL

The one that seems to have made the greatest difference (non-tracking) is the one referenced below in either 5w50, 5w40, or the two of them mixed together. Per the relevant gauges, the 996 runs a bit cooler and the viscosity (via oil pressure readings across running temperatures and times) stays higher.

OEM oil is made by cheapest bidder who was able to fill the minimum requirements by the already cheapskate GM.

my 2 cents - use MOTUL DEXOS 2 SPECIFIC. Or some other premium oil. Oil is the most important fluid your car has. Cheaping out on it just stupid.

My car at 150k extensively used Shell 10w60, and I switched it to Motul 10w60 cause it was the easiest to get for me.

I just changed the oil in my MK7 GTI (around 300hp) with MOTUL X-cess (5w40) and my god did it ever make a difference!

Mannol 5W30 the one with JP at the end

Shell Helix Ultra 5W40 if you like to experiment, will make your bug quieter, but you will discover other noises (like tires, rattles of the trunk cover, gear noise, compressor of aircon).

Use semi synthetic 10w30 replace at 3k kms. As for oil I try different brands from motul, gulf to fanfaro.

Think the last oil change I did was with Motul 7-series (fully synthetic) 10w40 because central Italy gets HOT

I've recently switched to Motul because the Castrol pouring spouts seem to have gone away and Motul's also become more available.

my bmw likes Motul more than liquid moly. also it likes Pennz oil Euro more than LM as well.

I used the Motul 10w50 fully synthetic. After running it for a few months I happened to check oil level and I was shocked to find out that 500ml had disappeared. This never happened on the stock Royal Enfield oil, nor with the Motul 5100, so I was not used to keep checking oil level religiously. But now I do.

Then I checked YouTube reviews to see if others report oil evaporation or burning off. And yes lot of youtubers report it, but still recommended it!

How can you recommend an engine oil that evaporates or burns off, even if it gives slightly better performance? It's ridiculous.
