What oil do you use and why?

[dsgbraves]

Royal Purple in one car, Mobile 1 in another, regular old Castrol in everything else

Dino oil I use Havoline , synthetic I use MObil 1, a friend who has been rebuilding engines for 30 years recomended Havoline years ago and it has worked great for me!

Another RLI Bio-Syn user...just got the UOA for our Accord 4cyl., 8,300 miles on the oil. Outstanding results: Virtually no metals wear; viscosity held up well; handled the Honda fuel dilution problem well; virtually no moisture. Very fine performing oil in our engine, a real credit to the potential of vegetable oils and the fine chemistry developed by Bill Garmier.



It's well worth having Terry Dyson at Dyson Analysis do a UOA for you, highly recommend him.

I run Esso XD-3 0w30 in my Maxima. Excellent value and great results from UOAs. I had run Mobil1 SuperSyn 5w30 before but prefer the heavier viscosity of the Esso.



I run whatever is cheapest (dino 10w30) when it's time for an oil change on my Probe. It leaks oil so it doesn't make sense to use fancy dinos.

Running Motorcraft 5w30 and 820S filter. I want to try Amsoil's 5w30 ASL on my next run.

I use Amsoil 0W-20 ASM

My 330 has been burning oil ever since I switched to full synthetic Royal Purple 5W40. :aww:

Castol 0w-30 euro blend, same stuff BMW uses in my car.
