I have been running Pennzoil platinum euro in my 16 GTI its entire life and its now at 125,000km. I ran the same oil in my 2007 GTI before I sold it up until 190,000km. Never had a single problem, neither cars burned any oil.

Pros: no problems, no oil burning
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 125000 km

PENNZOIL Engine oil

I switched to the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, which is made from natural gas and it's probably the best full synthetic oil available now, IMHO

Pros: best full synthetic oil
Vehicle: Hyundai Santa Fe

Shell Engine oil

Rotella 5w-40, for no other reason than it is good oil that I can use in every internal combustion engine I own, including wet clutches.

Pros: good oil
Cons: too thin IMO

Shell Rotella T6. It's marketed as heavy diesel oil, but it meets the exact same specs as mobil 1 full synthetic and just has some extra detergent like diesel oils do.

This oil in OG 9-3 that have the crankcase retrofit kits clean the entire engine very well after a few oil changes getting rid of and preventing any sludge issues. The oil even eliminated some nasty tappet noise due to low oil pressure in my 2002 9-3 after a few seconds when I bought it.

Pros: cleans engine, eliminates tappet noise
Cons: marketed as heavy diesel oil
Vehicle: Saab

Rating 4.0

I run 5w30 in my 17 tundra, 16 Corolla and soon my 23 4Runner. My Tundra was noticeably quieter after the switch. The Corolla was quieter, but the change was not as dramatic as the 5.7 V8 in the tundra.

Pros: quieter engine
Cons: change not dramatic
Vehicle: Toyota Tundra
