I even sent my oil away a little while ago and everything came back amazing.

I recently I have switched to MOTUL 8100 X-CESS and I can honestly say I will NEVER go back to anything else. With OEM I used to have to put a liter in before the oil change time, not with MOTUL....this stuff is magic.

It goes on sale every once at Germanparts.ca and a while (just went on sale for 25%, and I'm sure for boxing day coming up as well)

Why what is wrong with Pennzoil? I loose 250ML to 500ML before my oil change ~ 8000km.

Maybe the 5W-40 now is. But the 0W-40 is definitely not.

Who cares, you don't need less than 5W unless you are Santa Claus

Yes I agree but that isn't the point of our discussion.

TIA

Are you still interested in some 0W-40 castrol? I have some unused 5L I could sell for you cheap like 15$ or even 10$ a bottle depending. But shipping might kill the deal IDK.

PM me if interested. I just prefer to stick with Pennzoil now personally so I'd like to get rid of my Castrol stock.

Thank you for the offer pal, but I am all set for oil for the next year or so, stocked up recently.
