    This review is about the viscosity: 5W-40

    Installed on a Corsa e cdti. Normally the specifications are not suitable, but after modifications to the exhaust system, they could be installed with better results than the lowsaps previously recommended by Opel. They replaced the Bardahl 5w30 xtra. Initially, and not just in my imagination, I noticed the engine felt more lively... the first kilometers were truly excellent. Now I have gotten used to it, and in terms of noise, I would describe them as "smooth" but not like the sound of, for example, the Liqui Moly Top Tec 4600. I have covered 1200 kilometers... I will keep monitoring them until the next replacement, that is, a year or 10,000km.

    The reality is that we cannot evaluate an oil. It requires a laboratory and specialized equipment. All the other things like the engine sounds better, etc. are not measurable. The manufacturer recommends this oil, this is what I use. End of story.

    This review is about capacity: 1 lt, viscosity: 5W-40

    Coming from Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30, the oil is exactly as I expected. Seeing oil tests on YouTube, it is an excellent oil for high temperatures (100°C) and strong pressure because it has a very resistant oil film. However, at normal oil temperature, meaning when the oil is not yet hot, let me explain to you: when Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30 at normal temperature has a friction of 6, Shell Helix Ultra 5W40 has a friction of 9. So, the friction at normal temperatures, let alone in cold start, is greater. For now, the oil is great for warm weather, but in winter I will switch back to Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30

    This review is about the viscosity: 5W-40

    One of the best oils on the market, proven by chemical analysis. Ferrari doesn't randomly use it in their models. It has a high TBN number, so the oil takes longer to lose its chemical properties. It contains anti-friction additives such as Molybdenum (Mo) and Boron (B), which are increased compared to other 5w40 oils, resulting in low noise and low fuel consumption. Additionally, its composition with Magnesium and Potassium achieves the reduction of Low Speed Pre-Ignition Protection (LSPI) phenomenon, where the engine knocks due to poor fuel quality. What I noticed in my own engine is smooth and quieter operation. It also reduces gasoline consumption. It offers a lot for its price, so I would definitely buy it again. Always make sure to check the oil specifications and look for APPROVAL from the manufacturer, not just RECOMMENDATION.

    Top oil. In my Nissan Tiida (2009) 1600cc, I always used another well-known brand, but in the last change with Shell Ultra 5 liters, I saw a huge difference. Fuel consumption has noticeably decreased, the engine has "softened" in general, you can feel the difference immediately.

    Used in a Hyundai i20 2013, 1.2 and 86ps.

    The packaging and specifications of the oil have changed, it is now ACEA A3/B4 but it also covers API SN+. It is made from natural gas and not mineral oil, and you can tell by the smell.

    As an oil, it remains among the top in its category but it also needs some time to work properly. At first, at idle, the engine sounded louder but gradually became almost silent. Additionally, the car's fuel consumption, even in winter, is lower.

    The oil is full saps and as long as it meets the specifications of your car, you can get it blindly

    This review is about the viscosity: 5W-40

    I used Castrol 5w30 oil in my Ford Fiesta mkvi 2009 with 64000 km. I always changed it at 5000 km and it always burned a little oil. The next change with Castrol Edge 5w30, again at 5000 km, it burned a little oil again. Then I switched to Helix Ultra 5w30 Pure Plus and noticed smooth operation, easy start-up, quiet operation on the highway, and reduced consumption! I changed it again at 5000 km and it didn't burn a drop! So, I went back to Shell Helix Ultra, but this time 5w40 because in Greece, during the summer, we have temperatures above 40 degrees, so the 30-grade oils are not the best option. The results were exactly the same, even lower consumption, and the car runs smoothly! I don't know what's going on with Castrol, but after some kilometers, the oil burns

    This review is about capacity: 1 lt, viscosity: 5W-40

    Coming from Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30, the oil is exactly as I expected. Seeing oil tests on YouTube, it is an excellent oil for high temperatures (100°C) and strong pressure because it has a very resistant oil film. However, at normal oil temperature, meaning when the oil is not yet hot, let me explain to you: when Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30 at normal temperature has a friction of 6, Shell Helix Ultra 5W40 has a friction of 9. So, the friction at normal temperatures, let alone in cold start, is greater. For now, the oil is great for warm weather, but in winter I will switch back to Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W30

    One of the best oils on the market, proven by chemical analysis. Ferrari doesn't randomly use it in their models. It has a high TBN number, so the oil takes longer to lose its chemical properties. It contains anti-friction additives such as Molybdenum (Mo) and Boron (B), which are increased compared to other 5w40 oils, resulting in low noise and low fuel consumption. Additionally, its composition with Magnesium and Potassium achieves the reduction of Low Speed Pre-Ignition Protection (LSPI) phenomenon, where the engine knocks due to poor fuel quality. What I noticed in my own engine is smooth and quieter operation. It also reduces gasoline consumption. It offers a lot for its price, so I would definitely buy it again. Always make sure to check the oil specifications and look for APPROVAL from the manufacturer, not just RECOMMENDATION.

    Top oil. In my Nissan Tiida (2009) 1600cc, I always used another well-known brand, but in the last change with Shell Ultra 5 liters, I saw a huge difference. Fuel consumption has noticeably decreased, the engine has "softened" in general, you can feel the difference immediately.

    Used in a Hyundai i20 2013, 1.2 and 86ps.

    The packaging and specifications of the oil have changed, it is now ACEA A3/B4 but it also covers API SN+. It is made from natural gas and not mineral oil, and you can tell by the smell.

    As an oil, it remains among the top in its category but it also needs some time to work properly. At first, at idle, the engine sounded louder but gradually became almost silent. Additionally, the car's fuel consumption, even in winter, is lower.

    The oil is full saps and as long as it meets the specifications of your car, you can get it blindly

    This review is about the viscosity: 5W-40

    I used Castrol 5w30 oil in my Ford Fiesta mkvi 2009 with 64000 km. I always changed it at 5000 km and it always burned a little oil. The next change with Castrol Edge 5w30, again at 5000 km, it burned a little oil again. Then I switched to Helix Ultra 5w30 Pure Plus and noticed smooth operation, easy start-up, quiet operation on the highway, and reduced consumption! I changed it again at 5000 km and it didn't burn a drop! So, I went back to Shell Helix Ultra, but this time 5w40 because in Greece, during the summer, we have temperatures above 40 degrees, so the 30-grade oils are not the best option. The results were exactly the same, even lower consumption, and the car runs smoothly! I don't know what's going on with Castrol, but after some kilometers, the oil burns
