So I do 5k intervals on my DD/autocross car.
I'm interested in trying some different oils to see how wear numbers trend, both different brands and different weights.
Would it be not worth my time(er money more like it) to do them every change with a different oil? Or would it be a good idea to do 5k on the "next" oil to be tested with no UOA, then run same (new) stuff a second 5k THEN do a UOA?
I'm curious about Mobil/Castrol 0w20, Mobiland Castrol 0w30, and Mobil 0w40 primarily. Also Pennzoil Platinum 5w30... All vs the 0w20 PP I run now in my 2011 Mazda2.
