What's your engine oil?

[mwhited07]

I buy whatever's cheapest at the auto parts store. It's usually Quaker State 5W30 tho, with a Fram filter. Today i bought the deal at advance for 13.99, 5 quarts of quaker state and a purolater filter. I also bought some Engine Restorer and Lubricant to try out. We'll see how that goes even tho I've heard nothing but good things about it from friends.

I've stuck to whatever the dealership puts into it. I get my oil changes free for life (as long as the dealership sticks to it's current ownership), so I can't really complain all that much. IDK what I'd use if I didn't get those free oil changes though.

Castrol GTX High Mileeage 5w30 and pureone filter for 7500 OCI. Thes cars are so easy on oil I feel bad dumping it. It comes out same thickness as the oil I put in, just darker. Used regular GTX till about 80K.

I've been using Amsoil 5w30 since the second oil change along with a Napa Platinum filter. At 180,000 km and it uses no oil with 10,000 km change intervals. Engine cranks well at -40 without using the block heater. Cost is double of dino oil, but so is drain interval - so overall cost is the same and I have better engine protection.

Been using Pennzoil Platinum in my cars since I've been driving. However, I am probably going to start using some high-mileage stuff in the Aveo come it's next oil change.

Whatever's cheap goes in the Aveo, Mobil 1 for everything else.

Speaking of Mobil 1 they have an awesome rebate going on through the end of the month.

IMO Now a days, Cheap lubricants doesn't necessarily mean leaser quality of the petroleum products, as long as you know who's oil is in the bottle.

www.BobistheOilGuy.com I found this web site to be a great place for oil information.

I run Mobil 1 and change oil every 5,000 km with a bottle of STP oil treatment.

I run Amsoil in mine and couldn't be happier.

I run the Valvoline Max-Life Semi-Synthetic 10w-30, the car runs and sounds better with the slightly thicker oil. I have ran it for about a year with no problems, even during the HORRID winter we had last year. Since I mostly do in-town driving, I change it about every 5k.

It's always as clean as the day I poured it in when I do. lol
