Any time I see a product that markets through a cult-like multi-level marketing program with bogus "scientific" demonstrations that don't actually have any real world application, I tend to assume that the product itself is garbage and find myself unable to believe any of the claims made by the acolytes trying to get me to join their sect.

If your oil had got so bad that you can feel a change in the car after changing it then the damage is already done.

I'm not saying gritty or anything, maybe it's in my head, but it always seems just a little bit different. |

I’ve learned long ago that you do get what you pay for. I’m not brand biased at all. But when it comes to my daily I don’t want to take chances. Cheap is cheap, expensive is cheaper. |

If you feel that big a difference in your engine after changing the oil. Didn't mean the oil itself.

Use whatever you are comfortable with.
I chose amsoil signature series 0w-20 for my first change. It helps me sleep at night. |
