Who here uses High Mileage oil often or always?

[ZZman]

My Avalon now has 220,000 miles and has gotten Syn HM oil since I have owned it (140,000).

The Fusion barely has 50,000 so usually get reg Syn oil.

 

[ls1mike]

I use it in the Buick. To be fair I use just about anything in the Buick. It does not care.

 

[RooflessVW]

Castrol Edge 0W-20 HM in the Odyssey since ~1,000 miles.

 

[Bud_One]

I've been using it lately for my old 1997 Accord has 260k miles on it.
It's actually helped with oil loss , using Pennzoil High Mileage 10W30 regular oil.
Can got about 1200 miles before needing to top off oil .
Previously went 500 or so miles and had to be topped off.

 

[Dodgetracker]

Use Mobil 1 HM 10w30 in wife’s Jeep, almost 150k on it for the last 16 yrs.

 

[ARB1977]

130K on my Tacoma. I have no need for it.

 

[tnt_motorsports]

I put Citgo 5w30 FS HM in the 2014 T&C and the 2005 GC. Neither use oil but the GC has some weeping but no dripping.

Just my $0.02

 

[JeffKeryk]

All the time on my 200K vehicles. Unless I use something else, of course. QS HM 5w30 for the win!

 

[Tdbo]

Only time that I use it is if it is 1) cheap or 2) if I detect that the vehicle is using oil.
However, I did pick up a couple of 5qt. jugs of Pennzoil Platinum HM for $8. net over the summer during the TSC clearance.
I may use that in the Mustang. If not, then I'll use them in the truck.

Sprucy the Car likes high mileage oils for their enhanced anti-wear properties and detergency.

Just went over 300k on our 2004 RX330. Steady diet of Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage 5W30 with 6oz Tufoil since around 90k.

 

[JohnnyJohnson]

Every time its on sale cheaper than non HM I use it. It has never been a problem!

 

[Soft Cars]

I use it every time. I have settled on Valvoline Maxlife 10W-30. The GM 3800 seems to like it.

 

[gman2304]

I’ve used Valvoline Maxlife HM 10w30 for years in my 5.3 and at 234,000 miles…no runs, no drips, no errors!

Man
I forgot about tufoil....
Man that's old stuff

 

[SHOZ]

I've used it in my Hyundai Accent for the last 7 years and 70k miles or so. Mobil 1 HM 5w30 usually.

 

[SammyChevelleTypeS3]

I installed the first use of the Valvoline High Mi oil in place of long used Amsoil (from new) today since we just crossed 200,000
in the 2009 Accord.
Here we go. This 2009 purrs like a kitten when I started it up after. It was actually getting a bit noisy lately. I did go from the long time used factory recommended 5w20 to 5w30 specifically to see if it would make any difference... I drove it around a good bit today and it still runs so smooth it is unreal for a 200,000 auto. Unheard of years ago so I think we should all be happy it appears the automakers are making some machines that really can last a while with attention and following predictive , preventive maintenance and some LUCK.

Used some today for very first time. I used Valvoline for many years espcially in my trucks before the synthetics found their way to all of our store shelves.

 

[Corollaman]

I'll use HM oils when they are the same price as the non HM within a certain brand. For example, I'll use Supertech full synthetic high mileage because it's the same price as their regular full synthetic. From what I've seen the additive packages in the high mileage oils are often more stout and the oils often run a bit thicker.

 

[ctechbob]

Use it in both the Honda cars (Havoline 5W30) and have used it in the Ranger when the supply of Havoline Lifelong 5w30 dried up a year or so ago.
