Shell Engine oil

The interesting part is that the T6 was used to tow a camper from Indiana to the Oregon coast where we are now. It’s interesting to see the viscosity, flashpoint and Moly are higher in the T6 even after towing through the mountains and more miles on the change.

Pros: higher viscosity
Mileage: 7886 km

Don't know how many miles is on this car but these are notorious oil burners. It's a long shot buy you might try running Valvoline Restore & Protect oil.

Pros: Restore & Protect oil
Cons: notorious oil burners

Using high mileage oil (additives to make gaskets swell just a tad bit), used to burn almost a quart between 5k miles but now it's maybe half a quart.

Pros: reduced oil burning
Mileage: 160000 km

VALVOLINE Engine oil

I'm trying out Valvoline Restore & Protect right now. I only ran oem Idemitsu before but started to have oil consumption issues with that oil the last two winters so I decided to switch.

Cons: oil consumption issues

I tried Rotella when I first had my truck but it kept smelling like it was burning so I went to Valvoline Full Synthetic since it’s certified for Cummins.

Cons: smelling like it was burning
