Engine oil VALVOLINE or RAVENOL

VALVOLINE Engine oil

I do like Valvoline R&P and it is in fact cleaning up two older, normally aspirated cars I have with oiling and ring issues, installed in one Lexus and one older Acura (Isuzu).

Pros: cleaning up older cars
Cons: HTHS is very mediocre
Vehicle: Lexus

VALVOLINE Engine oil

  • Exhaust smoke:
Rating 4.0

Oil burning around 150k, although switching to Valvoline Restore & Protect I've basically eliminated it. Seems to be related to carbon buildup in the low tension rings.

Pros: eliminated oil burning
Cons: carbon buildup
Mileage: 150000 km

VALVOLINE Engine oil

I started using this on my high mileage Rav4 has definitely made the valve train noise quieter on the 2AR-Fe, I could swear the chain rattle that plagues these seems to have quieted down.

Pros: valve train noise quieter
Vehicle: Toyota

VALVOLINE Engine oil

I’ve run it for about 300 miles now in my 08’ Hummer with the 6.2L. So far cold start noises have drastically gone down, oil pressure hasn’t changed much. Truck seems happy so far. I’m monitoring dip stick varnish to see how well this cleans over time, for now I’m using my ears as my evidence and it sounds so much better.

Pros: cold start noises reduced
Cons: oil pressure unchanged
Mileage: 300 km

RAVENOL Engine oil

Ravenol VST 5w40 for now when my oil usage is nearly 1L for 1000km and I will probably go for the Ravenol RCS 5w40 after I rebuild the motor.

Cons: high oil usage
Mileage: 1000 km
