    ok, so what the BEST overall ?  :)

    According to The Motor Oil Geek, frequency in the oil-change intervals is way more important than oil brand!😊 Now we got the new SQ/ILSAC GF7A alternative!😅

    Use Amsoil in our race bikes.  Did  4 dyno pulls and 1  race weekend. Submitted for test, the local company said put it back in. We didn't,  when we freshen the motors they are spotless inside.

    The only oil I ever felt a difference with was amsoil. I've had lots of cars with lots of oil. I've used most of the big brands. On my last car I used Pennzoil ultra Platinum then I went to the Valvoline r& p. Perhaps because I had 230,000 mi, put on the Valvoline I started having low oil issues. I just bought the mobil advanced clean 0w20. It's supposed to have a lot of group 4, moly, Esther and probably some type 3. I haven't had any oil that I didn't like. But I've never really felt the difference. When I buy the oil myself I try to get what I believe is the best

    I am a drive a car until the wheels fall off kind of guy. It may be overkill to some, but I run Pennzoil ultra platinum and Mobil 1 filters and change both religiously at 5k miles. I'd rather be over cautious on maintenance then have to replace the engine down the line. Oil is cheap, engines and or a car payment are not.

    For a daily driver family car any of those brands are fine. Changing oil regularly is the key to engine longevity.

    I use Valvoline restore & Protect in higher mileage engines and Penzoil Ultra in lower mileage cleaner engines.

    Been using Kirkland oil for nearly a decade.  2010 outback 3.6r started at 140k, now at 216k. 2014 Subaru Legacy started on it in 2023 after warranty ended, 123k now. Use 5w30 in both.

    I generally use Castrol, I think it&apos;s called Extended Mileage or something, Synthetic. &nbsp;I think the filter is more important, so I like using the WIX XP. &nbsp;If I&apos;m short on the Yen so to speak, I&apos;ll settle for the Fram higher mileage one (I think says 10,000 miles, though usually change it at around 8,000).<br>The one weakness of the WIX XP is it is harder to grip and put on versus the easy to put on Fram (though the Fram is much lower quality).<br>I have a 2003 Honda Civic LX.

    Along with my Amsoil Signature Series,I &nbsp;didn&apos;t forget a quality oil filter for extended oil changes. I prefer Wix XP.
