I use Mobile-1. Why? I guess I've always held it to be the standard among synthetic engine oils. I'd certainly switch to another synthetic brand if it were that much better.

I usually use Mobil1 but due to extreme cold i got my mechanic to change the oil and he used a product called Lubri/liqui Moly http://www.techmax.ca/lubri.htm. Same price as Mobil1 and seems to work just fine on my 01 Echo.

I use Royal Purple because the hillbillies that live amongst me swear by it and if there is one thing I know it is that hillbillies love their engines. Doesn't hurt that its a track staple around here, too.

I'd buy Amsoil if it were more readily available through retail outlets.
BTW, wth is Vavloline? Are you trying to piss off SilkySmooth? |

I wouldn't worry about it....just count the number of posters who write in AMSOIL.
