I've used most Liqui Moly oil additives and I truly feel that they are not worth the money. Their motor oils alone are decent but stilll not worth the money. Probably their best additive is the fuel additive Jectron but it still wasn't as good as other fuel system cleaners such as Redline SI-1...

My friend purchased a brand new 2018 VW Jetta 1.4T and we did a 1,200 mile road trip around the Southwest US right way. As long as you take it easy and don't rev the engine too high, you should be fine. Congrats on the new ride.

The best oil I have ever used in two European cars, 2014 MB CLA250 and an 2009 Audi A3, I have used Motul X-cess 5W-40. I've used pretty much every common motor euro oils and I was the most satisfied with Motul. The quietness and smoothness was amazing. I really can't speak for their base oil or...

Definitely looks great. Its worth trying.

I should get an extractor myself. I always try my best to be as clean as possible but I still make a mess when I pour the used oil into a jug. If I get an oil extractor, I won't have to get under the cars to drain the oil since the Audi A3 and the MB CLA250 has their oil filter on top. As much...

Kirkland Signature oil is $23.99 at the store so picking it up would be a better option. Making it $2.40 per quart, excluding tax. Very good deal.

Found these links if you guys are interested. Online it says its $29.99. I saw it at the store for $23.99. I'll have to go back and see if they are still $24 and just pick it up and save the oil for next time. Definitely a Warren Distribution product. *Great news: They also have 5W-20 and 0W-20...

That means every quart is $2.40. Great price for a Full synthetic 5W-30.

Saw this at my local Costco (Lakewood, CA) on Dec. 2, 2019. Thought it was interesting since I've never seen it before. Must be brand new. It contains 2 jugs, 5 quarts each for $23.99. Only 5W-30 was available at the time. 10 quarts in total. Very good deal even better than Supertech's price but...

I appreciate you guys enjoy the results. Once the oil was in stock, I wanted to use this oil so I can be one of the first to have a UOA on this specific oil. The oil did its job just like every other oil I have used. This oil does have a $10 rebate until the end of 2019 so that is pretty...

I want to be straight forward with this post. So I used Shell Rotella Gas Truck 0W-20 in a 2012 Honda Civic LX with a 1.8 liter SOHC engine (R18Z1). The oil has always been changed every 10,000 miles since brand new with full synthetic media oil filters and full synthetic 0W-20 motor oil. The...

I would imagine that the high mileage version would be more potent since high mileage typically associates with wear, tear, carbon build up, and dirty injectors. At the same time, I feel that there is an insignifacant difference between the two. I have not done any research about these products...

This is a good UOA. Thanks for sharing with the BITOG community. I have always been curious of the Castrol 0W-40. Just know that the money you paid for the analysis was well spent since you have helped me and others. Once again thanks.

My previous oil was Mobil 1 European Formula 0W-40. It was used for 3,000 miles or 180 hours of severe use (Stop and go traffic, occasional pulls, spirited driving, highway driving with abrupt stops, 2-4 hours straight, daily for the past 4 months) My 1988 Honda Civic LX requires a 5W-30 or...

2012 Honda Civic LX 1.8 liter with 168K Miles Motor Oil: Shell Rotella Gas Truck 0W-20 SN PLUS Oil Filter: Wix XP 57356XP I will eventually do a UOA with 10K miles.
