Poll: Which FULLy synthetic oil do you use? - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yawesh · 01-19-2009, 04:44 PM

for those who use fully synthetic oil for their engines

i am now using Royal Purple after my factory break in oil (changed at 5100k)

Thirty-Nine · 01-19-2009, 05:06 PM

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.

jambo101 · 01-19-2009, 05:18 PM

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 Mobil1, I've been thinking about running Amsoil though

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?

Doc Zaius · 01-19-2009, 06:38 PM

Well, then you need to remove one of the options you have there because I know several YW members use Amsoil.

Amsoil 0W-30 Signature Series FTW!!

CB900F2 · 01-19-2009, 09:22 PM

Amsoil 5W30 (ASL) with EAO OIl Filter.

Klink10 · 01-19-2009, 09:33 PM

Klink10 · 01-19-2009, 10:56 PM
