what engine oil are you guys/gals using
Just wanted to get some disussion/opinions going about what engine oil you all prefer and use in your cars. I searched the threads and didn't see any about it. Just curious more than anything. Conventional-Synthetic What weight. Etc. I use Mobil one 5w30. Mobil one has a 10w30 that is marketed for higher mileage vehicles, what are your thoughts about that. Thanks to all replies.

Mobil 1 10-30. 41915 miles.
|
Royal Purple 10w-30 since 60xxx
|
5-30W GTX High Milage. I'm at 120k, used it since 90k.
Its the best non sythetic you can get, i'd go full synth but synthetics eat up seals. |
On both cars I use all natural Penzoil - 03 10w30 and 05 5w30. Change the 05's oil about every 2500-3000 miles and the 03 since it doesn't get driven much about once or twice a year.

i have to use 10w30 becase that wat the cap sayes. I use Quaker State and lucas oil additive. I want to use Royal Purple tho. I also use a K&N performance oil filter. and i got about 160k miles
if your car uses 5w30 run 10w30 in the warmer months and 5w30 in the colder months. running 10w30 in the summer month because is a heavyer oil it wont burn up as quickly |
