ive used a few synthetic brands. i've used mobil 1 and was pretty satisfied. that being said i have also used royal purple and amsoil. yes they are a little more expensive, but if you look at the cost of oil alone if your already spending $30-$40 another few bucks really aint that bad.In my experience they have made a difference. i've had less oil consumption in all my cars by using royal purple and to be honest i have also felt a difference in performance as crazy as it sounds. ray give it a shot and if your not happy you just gotta wait at least 3k miles to try something else.

I feel like the engine is not getting enough oil until it FULLY warms up. I didn't get that feeling with regular oil.
I am NOT being sarcastic when i say this, but how do you feel engine oil working or not?

i use mobil 1 and just switched to amsoil. im switching back to mobil 1 cause my car doesnt burn mobil 1 and it burns amsoil for some reason. i also have krankvents, which stopped my oil consumption with mobil 1.
