Engine oil VALVOLINE or MOTUL

MOTUL Engine oil

I use Motul 5w40 *Power* and I’m tuned. It’s really hard to heat up this oil and I have no oil coolers whatsoever and it’s been such a solid oil choice so far but I haven’t seen anyone use it except this one guy on his wrx. Highly recommend it

Pros: hard to heat up, solid choice
Vehicle: Subaru

MOTUL Engine oil

I use 5w-40 Motul x clean gen 2 on my built wrx. Running 5w-40 is best for added protection from ethanol dilution overtime and for warmer climates as oil gets pretty hot.

Pros: added protection, good for warm climates
Vehicle: Subaru

VALVOLINE Engine oil

I used to use Rotella T4 as recommended by many on the forums. It was fine but I switched to Valvoline 20w50 because it has the additional Zinc like the Rotella T4, and a bit better film strength which protects bearings at high RPM.

Pros: better film strength
Vehicle: Mazda

However my "go to" oil in the last two oil changes was the Motul Specific 508 00 509 00 0W-20.

Pros: safe choice

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.

Pros: slightly better performance
Cons: oil evaporation or burning
