I used regular Castrol conventional oil 5w-30 for a few thousand miles and then I switched to synthetic. I currently use Castrol Syntec 5w-30. To be honest I can't tell the difference.
In the summer I plan on using Mobil1 0w-40 (European Formula), they said it performs well..
Im the only guy running 10w30 mobil 1 fully synthetic it seems. Stock should be 5w 30 but I change my own oil and they didnt have any 5w30 at walmart when i went!
I use 5w30 mobil 1 synthetic... I get them at costco when they are on sale with $7-9 off for 5 or 6 quarts... It comes out to $22 and I have my dealership change it for $15 for labor and filter since I'm lazy to do it myself.
don't have HR, but castrol "German" syntec 0W-30 works great [but the price has gone up in my area...now costs as much as RP] My current fill @ just over $5 a quart is Pennzoil Platinum
i picked Castrol Syntec 5w-30 now for the best oil filter, mobil 1, K&N ? Any thoughts?
Im using Mobile-1 0w-40 and Mobile-1 filter. However I was doing a search on this late Saturday and am going to try the Wix filter. I would do a search for the thread but Im lazy and already did my own research and the post was very informative with flow & filtration numbers.
BTW, Mobile-1 filters have a great filtration system but I think flow was considered low. I haven't had a problem with the bigger filter (I don't use the little one that Mobile-1 recommends).
Im very surprised that there was no flaming on this thread like all the other "What Oil/Filter" threads.
