Engine oil VALVOLINE or AMSOIL

VALVOLINE Engine oil

This weekend, the oil that's in it is coming out (it's clean) and Valvoline Restore and Protect is going in. Rationale is there will undoubtedly be deposits on the pistons, in the piston ring grooves and ring lands.

Pros: cleaning piston deposits
Vehicle: Kia Soul
Mileage: 118000 km

Valvoline is ok, but that specific oil does not have the rating required for your vehicle. AMSOIL has by far better additives to clean/restore the engine. If you are currently using AMSOIL, then continue using it.

Pros: better additives, clean/restore engine
Cons: does not have rating

AMSOIL Engine oil

I use Amsoil, all 3 holes.

The Engine oil is proven, the claim about the gearbox oil helping to find neutral easier was true for me, and the primary fluid does just that.

Pros: Engine oil proven

I see all these people shit talking the oil, but they haven't actually used it. I've used it, and it's great. I put it in one car (pontiac) with over 70k miles and it ran way better than with normal full synthetic. I got a 02 explorer with almost 200k miles, it was idling rough as hell. I thought it would need a tune up, spark plugs, ignition coils, oil change and air filter. One bottle later, started it up and it was almost silent.

Pros: ran way better, almost silent
Cons: slightly more expensive
Mileage: 70000 km

AMSOIL Engine oil

Yesterday I took my car in for an oil change and got amsoil. I read countless comments of people hating on the price, this and that, but let me tell you somthing, that amsoil ain't a gimmick or a rip off. My car drove sooooo much better afterwards, it kinda shocked me. Smoother, seems faster, more. Consistent shifts, just left me feeling like she felt the best version of herself.

Pros: smoother, faster, consistent shifts
Vehicle: Acura TLX
