I’ve been using this oil exclusively in my 2015 Audi Q7 Sport Edition for almost 8 years, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s the same oil Audi prefers for their engines, so I know I’m giving my vehicle exactly what it was designed for. Even after all these years, my engine runs smooth, strong, and clean—never a hiccup. What really makes this a no-brainer is the price. Compared to what dealerships charge, it’s an absolute steal. I’ve also priced out other high-quality brands, and none of them come close to the cost-performance ratio of this one. For what you pay, the quality is unbeatable. Oil changes can be a pain, but knowing I’m using the right oil at a fraction of the price takes the sting out of it. I usually buy in bulk to save even more, and the consistency in quality across every bottle has been rock solid. Whether you’re driving an Audi or another European car that calls for this spec, this oil just works. No guesswork, no surprises. It’s the kind of reliability you stick with and clearly, I have.

There were three major reasons I chose this oil. First it is robust. It has to be. It has MB-Approval 229.5 and this means it can be drained in typical European fashion which is up to 32,000km (20,00 miles) or 3 years, when the engine is gas and it looks like 1 year or 10,000 miles for diesel, provided the vehicle is setup properly for it and the driving conditions are at their most favorable. Second, it has has a favorable price point in the 5 quart size. Thirdly, it is just as capable of longer drain intervals whether used in a gas or diesel engine, provided the engine is set up for it. My engines, one gas and one diesel, are not set up with oil condition monitoring so I will be guided by good judgement and lab results as to change interval. After I put it in the diesel two unexpected benefits became obvious. The engine, a Mercedes Benz 3.0 turbo diesel, ran much more quietly. By this I mean mechanical noises. Combustion noise in that engine, as heard from inside the car is modest at idle and drops too low to notice just above idle. But to not hear engine mechanical sounds from inside car at all rpm's and loads, immediately following the oil change and staying this way in the weeks to follow, is very impressive. The other benefit is a noticeably smoother idle. I have been doing my own oil changes for just over 40 years and this oil is the best one yet. 31 May 2020 Update: I have been running this in the diesel (85 Mercedes 300D) 21 months now. The internal mechanical noises not only went away right after the first oil change with this oil but also stayed away during the entire use interval of 5528 miles to the next oil change a year later. This was a first!! I had noticed, one oil change after another, using various brands of diesel HDEO oils for 15 years, the mechanical noise of the engine would go away after changes only to gradually return in about 2000 miles or so. Another plus came from this being a 0W-40. I noticed that the sound of starter is utterly the same year round now. Cranking as low as -10F sounds like cranking any other day. Nice to think of saving stress on the old starter. Conversely, idle oil pressure, once warmed up, behaves just as it did with 5W-40 before.

mobil1の0w-40と比較する為にも購入しました。 フィルター交換すると4.5L必要な為、5クオートは 助かります。 肝心の性能評価です。mobil1との比較がメインになります。 r56 ミニに乗っていますが、吹け上がり、高速巡航中の印象ですが、少し重い感じがありました。 同じ粘度ですが、私の好みはmobil1です。 重い感じだが、しっかり回るBMWらしいエンジンフィールになります。 その他は、同様、輸入品のプラ容器で交換必要量の4.5Lをカバーできる4.7Lありますので、オイル喰いのある私の車には、ピッタリです。 製品はベルギー製でした。 費用面も缶容器では、追加の1L缶が必要だが、それがない為、安上がりです。 個人的なランクですが、モチュール、ワコーズが上位、次点で、mobil1。その次にエネオスファイン(会社カードで交換出来てお得。フラッグ代わり(笑)です)と同位で今回のカストロール、缶のカストロール。普段使いできる金額では、次回はまたmobil1に戻ります。
