Best synthetic oil?

You have a bright future young Padiwan.

 

A Jedi craves not these things.

 

I'm a rebel and use Kendall GT-1 Full Synthetic. I'd love to run Rotella T6, but it's not the proper grade, and you know...warranty...

 

Was using Mobil 1 Extended, but since I love Valvoline for making ATF Max Life (which replaces WS) and since Wallyworld now carries it, I've switched to Valvoline Full Syn Max Life motor oil. However, still using Mobil 1 oil filters. Well, did buy a Purolator syn filter for the daughter's 06 Camry. You see, the fit is tight and smooth surfaced filters (like Mobil 1) slip in your hands. The Purolator syn filters have a rough, or matte, surface which provides better grip. And the filter can go 10K miles.

 

Mobil 1 gives high iron readings in oil analysis tests.

Penzoil has it beat.

 

I buy Mobil One at Costco when its on sale. I think its on sale now here in FL. Instant $10 off.

During the spring and fall sometimes there's a manufacture rebate also.

 

I use Mobil One 0w-20. Buy mine from Amazon which is cheaper then Walmart or any of my local Auto stores.

 

I've used Mobil 1 and OEM filters exclusively since my '06 4.0 was born, 260k miles ago. Change both every 10K. So far so good.

 

I've always felt good about using Mobil 1 oil and Wix filters in all my vehicles.

 

In this day and age I dont think it matters what oil you use as long as it meets API guidelines.

The key to oil is.....change it, thats really it.

That being said, I use Mobil 1 and buy when its on sale.

 

I like the Mobil 15K oil. If I change it exactly at 15K, I can still see through it. Have been using it 10+ years in all my SUVs and trucks, never any issues. $29 for a 5 quart jug in Walmart.

 

The best oil is the one that you use and change when you should.
