Eh if it’s VW approved then it’s fine. I just use Castrol Euro or Valvoline Euro and haven’t had any issues.

Pros: no issues

VALVOLINE Engine oil

Last oil change I put in Valvoline R&P 5W-30. The final 500 miles before the oil change I added Rislone and it changed the color of the oil from light to dark brown. When I got the car it was using a quart in about 2200-2500 miles.

Pros: reduced oil consumption
Cons: oil color changed
Vehicle: Kia Soul
Mileage: 7000 km

Been reading user anecdotes about R&P for a while now, and it's like 98% positivity among those who reported oil consumption before using R&P and seeing substantial improvement after.

My Miata isn't currently burning an oil at all, but I put R&P in it and I intend to change it every 3k because it makes me sleep well.

Pros: substantial improvement
Vehicle: Mazda
Mileage: 3000 km

Shell Engine oil

Can’t go wrong with Rotella T6. It’s marketed as a diesel engine oil, but gas engines love the stuff too. It’s just not great for catalytic converters, because it contains a high amount of anti-wear and anti-friction additives.

Pros: gas engines love it
Cons: bad for catalytic converters
Vehicle: BMW
