Review: Super nice and smooth, so much power! Car feels nimbler. Worth the price - I normally don't buy such expensive engine oils (normally buy cheap diesel truck oils add in MoS2). However, this one was well worth the purchase. Engine feels substantially smoother and quieter. After running for a while, the car feels a lot nimbler. More power, and as if it simply wants to keep moving rather than whining. It glides like a magic carpet

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will the green colour stained the engine permanently just in case I wanted to return to regular oil?**
A: I did not notice any impact from the color of the oil in my engine.

**Q: My high mileage chevy colorado has subtle oil leaks and never used synthetic before. should i switch to this or not?**
A: Will it help with leaks - no. 
Might save your engine if oil level drops too low. Had that happen on my 09 mini copper. Got me home, when engine would have overheated with low level of normal oil. Just personal experience, checked after coming back from long trip and oil level didn’t even reach dip stick. If that ever happens, remember to replace oil right away, as all additives are used up and oil probably burned. 
Otherwise, pretty good oil. Just make sure it matches specks for your vehicle. Aside from higher cost, don’t see any other reasons not to use synthetic. And even then, replacement intervals are longer, which offsets higher price.

**Q: al echarle este aceite tendré que ponerle siempre del mismo aceite cada ves q lo cambio ?**
A: No siempre que sea un aceite de calidad premium

**Q: How often should i change this oil?**
A: At 10,000 miles the first time and 15,000 the second time. Still had 15% oil life at 15,000 miles

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smooth, Quiet, and Reliable Protection
*by J***R on August 17, 2025*

I recently switched over to this oil and it’s honestly one of the best upgrades I’ve made for my 2018 Mazda 3 Hatchback 2.5L. The 5 liter jug is the perfect amount for a full change, and I really like knowing it’s a high-quality fully synthetic formula that gives my engine the protection it deserves. The first thing I noticed was how much smoother cold starts became—no more of that rough, clunky sound in the mornings. The engine feels quieter overall and runs more efficiently, like it’s not straining as much. I’ve also seen fewer deposits and buildup, which gives me peace of mind about long-term wear. Another thing I appreciate is that it’s designed with modern engines in mind—safe for turbocharged setups and catalytic converters. It also blends easily with other oils, which makes topping off simple if I ever need to. Highlights for me: Excellent cold-start protection, even on chilly mornings. Noticeable improvement in smoothness and reduced engine noise. Works well with today’s engines, including turbos. Easy to mix when topping off. Overall, this oil gives me confidence that my engine is well-protected and performing at its best. Definitely feels like a premium choice that’s worth it.
