My father always used Valvoline oils with great results on his high mileage vehicles, myself I like Pennzoil with similar results, my cousin uses Castrol with great results, I believe the moral of the story it’s more about the oil change intervals than which engine oils folks use, just my 2 cents!
Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Valvoline Advanced are both very great oils. Mobil1 is sub par, but marketing makes it mainstream. Supertech is comparable to Mobil1, both are good oils, but Mobil1 has the marketing budget.
I agree with the Shell Rotella and Valvoline. I use Shell 5w40 in my 2015 6.7L F250 each oil change. I’m from Texas, so it works great for the 108 degree days. On the opposite end of the temp spectrum, in February of 2021 I drove from Texas to Casper Wyoming for a funeral and it was -35 degrees there. My truck started right up in the morning without the block heater being plugged in. I use full synthetic Valvoline in everything else, such as my transmission fluid, transfer case, and diff fluid.
No matter how valuable the oil types are. The oil is to be considered as a spare part in the new cars. Which oil to use is stated in the car's operating instructions. And it's really important to read there. You can then choose your favorite oil manufacturer after approval by the car manufacturer. Just a reminder. The companies Ford and Citroen install timing belts that run in oil in some engines. If you use the wrong type of oil in these engines, the timing belt comes loose and there is major engine damage. It is therefore important to use the right oil with the approval of the vehicle manufacturer. It must not be a recommendation, it must be an approval.
Agreed. There is zero testing and analysis going on here. None of them are bad oils but having a top 5 list is misleading as there is no scientific basis for the order of the list.
Liqui Moly Special Tec AA 0W16 for my Lexus, handsdown with a Toyota OEM filter of course for my specific engine (hybrid). And, for our XC-40 Volvo T5 we use Liqui Moly Special Tec AA 0W20 and an OEM Volvo oil filter. Shall be using Liqui Moly - Molygen New Generation Engine Oil (0w-20), if I can find it for the next oil change. Molygen for both vehicles when available.
We might have to remake the video, the ones we have listed have always been the best we have experienced. Will do some research into your suggestions today🤓. Thanks for your feedback
Incorrect. Purple is over priced, and under performs. Mobil is just average. Yes Amsoul is quite good, and quite expensive. Stop believing everything you hear.
I use Amsoil Signature Series with Fram Ultra Synthetic in my converted 2022 Ford Transit 350 AWD every 5,000 miles. Ford recommends every 10,000 miles between oil change, but I am reluctant to go pass 5,000 miles.
Oil burnoff is mostly dependent on how often you change your oil and whatever the piston ring pressure is on the cylinder walls. In the mid 2000s, auto manufacturers (esp. Toyota) experimented with lower ring pressure levels as a means of increasing mpg. This turned out to be a mistake as whatever increase in mpg occurred, if any, was negated by the increase in oil consumption. That's why such engines use 0W16 or 0W20 weight oils. Those are the thinnest commercially available oils.
Fun fact. Toyota probably learned this from their F1 racing experience. During qualifying, the teams used to remove the oil rings leaving only the compression ring, to great result. Then put them back in for the race. Toyota Dynamic force engines are based on racing tech. So rather than just business as usual, Toyota is trying to break new ground.
@je19662008 not really, all manufacturers have their problems. Toyota/Subaru are doing some pretty neat things, Dual injection, electronic vvt. Other companies have to catch up.
@@DayRider76 Maybe, but the idea of decreasing the ring pressure on the cylinder walls in an effort to save gas is ludicrous, because you need to ask how much gas you're actually saving vs how many miles you're taking off of the overall engine life by creating an artificial defect vis-a-vis oil consumption. Not to mention how much life it takes off of the catalytic converter, which is no minor or cheap replacement.
@@je19662008 Well yea, but it's not their fault. If the government wasn't pushing BS green policy to line their pockets, the manufacturers wouldn't have to take such drastic measures. Toyota is trying to ride out the storm, just like the rest of us. In other words, they keep kicking goals with a moving goal post. You should honestly be thanking Toyota for their efforts, less you want to ride around on a bomb that is spying on you and can take you to jail for misgendering. All I'm saying is, they can't build the product you want, they have to build the product "they" want. I'm not a Toyota fanboy btw. Have never even owned one, but I work on them on occasion, and have found their engineering to be Very competent. Just try not to be one of those people, the ones who complain about how things are, but also voted for it to be that way.
I used to use Valvoline. When I switched to synthetic, there was synthetic blend, synthetic and full synthetic. I decided Mobil 1 is only synthetic so that is good enough for me.
I am wondering, since when is 75 k miles high mileage?? Heck. Motor is just getting broken in at that point. ??? Must be talking about foreign vehicles. Lol
Disagree with the Pennzoil ran it for years in multiple trucks I owned and it made the inside of my motors look horrible. I will never run it in any of my vehicles again!!!
Where are your test results? Maybe you should watch a video about Project Farm as his test engine oils with test result. Talking about a product and showing result are to different things.
Id have to disagree Amsoil is ridiculously overpriced Mobil one is mediocre at best Royal purple should be on there My choice is valvoline, penzoil, and dare i say super tech.(made by warren) very good product
So this video gives us a lot of marketing fluff for each one of these oils, but how do we truly know what is best unless there is a way of measuring it. I don't see any sort of test results or anything. Sounds like just a subjective opinion.
WHERE WOULD VALVOLINE extended protection and extended protection high mileage be on the list. Even just Valvoline High Mileage all have a lot of MOLY.
