Rating 4.0

I use Pennzoil "Ultra" Platinum for my 2010 with 5.4 Triton and it runs amazing. At one point I did try Royal Purple but my engine was actually noticeably noisier so I switched back.

Pros: runs amazing
Cons: engine was noisier
Vehicle: Ford
Mileage: 320000 km

PENNZOIL Engine oil

I usually buy Pennzoil, it's inexpensive and it works. I check the contents first to make sure the oil isn't full of gunk in case someone swapped it. I do oil change every 5k km, which is once every 2-3 months, hence I don't worry much about too much gunk as I flush it out often.

Pros: inexpensive, it works
Cons: check for gunk
Mileage: 5000 km

Rotella T-Syn is a great oil but for our turbos...i wouldn't recommend it since if any oil gets burnt or makes it way through the rings...the higher amount of ZDDP (zinc) found in the Shell Rotella Synthetic oil will be harmful to your catalytic converter which may cause a failure.

Pros: great oil
Cons: harmful to catalytic converter

Stay away from rotella conventional. I’ve heard and now as well personally have had a turbo grenade due to their oil quality, that’s the conventional anyways.

Cons: turbo grenade
