Some of you guys correctly called me out for not giving the additives (i.e. Molybdenum) appropriate credit. They’re a small percentage of the volume but I believe do make a real difference in the performance of the name-brand oil, it’s just really complex and outside the scope of what I could manage to test for a quick video like this. I’m going to see if we can figure out a way to really hone in on and test these in a future video. - Jer

This is why modern cars has so many oil related problems, many older mechanics just adds stuff that has roughly the right weight and calls it a day. Modern oils are more complex and you need one that suits your car. But it's true that you can get the right oil from many different brands.

*To answer your question, the oil found at dollar stores and other cheap places are yes, lower grade, but will get the job done perfectly fine. People use valvoline, from not only the fact of how good the brand looks, but from the fact that most people believe that putting not only cheap parts on your car, but putting cheap fluids in your car are terrible. In a lot of cases, they are absolutely right. In this case though, it depends. Are you just driving a daily? You know..... A to B? Fine use this oil. Are you racing in the track? You know..... Trying to set records and pushing the car to the limit? Use valvoline and other oils with true quality to be safe in the case of malfunction. Good day!*

@@DuBstep115 never said they didn't exist. What I met by "true quality" was oil with a reputation and stand alone history of being healthy for cars with horses made to gallop. When driving around in a track car that you run multiple laps while pushing it to the limit, you must be absolutely sure that your car is fully equipped. This doesn't only mean potentially a roll cage, but proper tires, wheels, suspension, intercooler, and all sorts of stuff that are needed for not only proper function in these sessions of pushing the car to the limit, but incase of failure. Oil is no acception. You must make sure the oil you are using has a garantee that it works well with such activities. If your driving a wagon though, using oil that isn't that expensive doesn't matter. Your not running it hard. That was my point. I don't know if you were trying to pick an argument because I didn't mention other oil brands even thought that wouldn't have changed nor helped my statement. I gave an answer because donut didn't give a straight on answer nor answer it at all.

From my experience at first cheap generic oil is just as good as Valvoline, Pennzoil, etc. fresh out of the bottle. But over time it breaks down a lot quicker and causes you to need an oil change sooner and it tends to be harder on your engine because the base isn’t as uniformly processed. So if you’re just needing to change your oil in a pinch once or twice go ahead and buy the cheap stuff. But as a chemical engineer and a car guy I wouldn’t use the cheap stuff for more than a couple oil changes during the life of your car. Unless you’re looking to be like Nolan and neglect your engine.

Personally I use Amsoil. That being said I grew up using Quaker State. My parents sold a car to my half brother, hate claiming that much relation to him, and while he was driving the oil pump shaft broke. Instead of turning it off he drove around 100 miles and then brought it out to the house and demand that we fix it for free, did I mention he hadn't paid for the car yet. Well long story short I personally pulled the oil pan and the rod and main bearings and they looked fine. Think the car had circa 70-80k on it and that's what they looked like. I was amazed because the lifters were loud and I really thought the engine was toast after over 100 miles with zero oil pressure.

As most trained mechanics will tell you, as long as it has that API sticker and you change oil every 3K - 5K miles, you’re good to go. Now that said, there is a huge debate in the motorcycle community over using “motorcycle oil” (specifically Motul) vs anything else. Motorcycles usually have lubrication systems that use the engine oil to also lubricate the gear box. Would be cool to see THAT comparison.

As a diesel mechanic I use engine oil quite a lot to determine how engines are performing. Aswell as using them as a diagnostic tool! Say a engine has a low oil pressure problem, you can use a oil sample to see how much metal is in the oil to determine if there is excessive bearing material in it. There’s way more things that oil can be used for but that can all be done in another video! Overall great video look forward to seeing more!!!

Maybe I missed something, but I watched the entire video and I didn't see where it says why you shouldn't buy oil from a dollar store. Most store brands have contracts with other larger, more well-known brands and I'd be willing to bet that this is what the dollar stores do for their oil as well. I've always gotten my oil from Walmart, but this video doesn't deter me from buying it from a dollar store if I was in a pinch.

Squirt the sample in the top, it runs to the bottom of the pipe…and spits out a number. Spectrometer for metal levels finds levels of engine component wear going on, etc. Flashpoint tests for firrrre.

If it says "API SERVICE SN" then it's been tested to meet OEM specs for modern engines. All brands should meet this spec. Sure, you can extend the oil change interval slightly with full synthetics because it doesn't break down as fast, but it won't improve the performance or longevity of the engine vs using conventional oil. What does destroy engines is failing to change the oil regularly.
