Motul Oil Change

[sammyrusso]

just did full oil change using motul 5w 40 and new stock filter @ 9k miles...i never really felt it when i got an oil change before..people say adds power and engine feels much better, didnt think so...but i got to say i felt it...been told by many that motul is one of best and the stuff cost 17.50 a quart...felt like engine was running much better..more eager to rev... any opinions?

i dont really change oil for added power, more for protection and Motul is one of the best. I have been religious in maintaining my car with motul products and since switching to motul 5w40, my car does not burn oil the way these engines typically do and i have never had to top off between oil changes

In LA area you can get it at Super Autobacs in OC or in the SGV locations. They also carry most of the 1Z car care products. www.autobacsusa.com Just be warned that you might be the only non-ricer in the place....

total/elf is good too, i used it for my las oil change and havent burned a drop (knocks on wood).

i hear pentosin is good as well

I noticed that after I changed my oil with Motul that the timing chain tensioner rattle practically vanished. I did not notice any performance increase, but I do have more peace of mind knowing that I'm protecting my engine with the best oil out there.

Same here. Don't hear that after start up any more. Although I've used Lubro Molly.

$17.50 a quart? Wow, I paid $35.00 for 5 quart bottles purchasing online. Ordered 2 cases of them for a total of 8 bottles with shipping still comes out to just about $45.00 a bottle.

Doesnt our car take 10 qts? Over 100$ just for the oil per change? sounds pricey...

8.6 quarts

8.6 quarts

Really? I could have sworn it was more...

[40valve]

Mine takes more than 8.6. I filled up 10 and pulled out .5 - .75 out.

I use Lubro-Moly, and I noticed a difference when I changed to that from whatever the dealer puts in. Engine seemed to run smoother, and I didn't have to periodically put more oil, as with the dealer oil.

World Impex is a great site. Ordered a ton of parts from them for my old TDI.

But... shipping oil is expensive.
