STOP Using These 13 Engine Oils That Are Killing Your Car! | Car Maintenance Tips

[@comali2212]

Most engine oil are good enough if you change them regularly, 3/4k miles max.

[@CheckFacts360]

That's definitely an important part of car maintenance!

[@gudlutripathy3283]

@CheckFacts360 in bike maintenance too.

[@AFBlackmount]

Good thing is I don’t use any of this oils, I don’t know or never heard of either; except for Quaker State.

I drive a 02 Mercury Sable LS and I always put in Pennzoil High Mileage. Never had a issue in the past 8 years I've owned it. The engine is still silent to the point I forget its on. Also helps that a Porsche engineer helped design the engine that these and many other cars have; the Duratec. They're solid engines, so ontop of a solid oil it goes far. Its got about 221K miles on it. These engines are known to last over 500K miles. You can abuse em' if you want to, but treat it right and thats much more better. Ofcourse the oils in this video are mostly lesser known brands. Anything that looks generic is risky. Just get yourself Valvoline, Pennzoil, Mobil 1 or Castrol and you'll be fine. My personal pref is Pennzoil. It might be a little more expensive than what you're comfortable with but you never want to skimp out on your oil.

The only oil you listed here I have seen in Canada is the Quakerstate. If a certain company's oil is bad, it is just logical to avoid their trans fluid as well. I do not agree with changing oil too early, excess change create excess pollution. I change mine at 10,000 km (6200miles) Toyota actually recommend 15,000 km but experienced Toyota mechanics said 10,000 km is much better. So for those who thinks more is better, why stop at 3,4000 miles , change it at 1000 miles then.

Quaker State Full Synthetic 5-30 It's great oil. I have 210,000 miles on my car and have not had 1 problem with the engine. I do change my oil every 3-4k miles.

[@CheckFacts360]

It sounds like you're taking good care of your car!

[@Bryan-Hensley]

​​@@CheckFacts360I've got 620,000 on my Chevy van using Quaker State..I choose Quaker State after hours and hours of research because it has the highest sheer protection at the highest temperature of any oil on the market. I own a HVAC company and I've had 3 other vans to surpass 450,000 miles with no issues using Quaker State. I've also got a Toyota Corolla with 390,000 miles with no issues. I change to oil every 15,000 miles in the vans because they usually travel 3,500 miles per month. I'm not changing the oil every 3.5 weeks.

[@carlwhoha769]

Of the 13, I have only heard of Amazon and Quaker State. Where did they find the others?...

[@roberthughes2687]

Truck stops

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I haven't watched this yet but Quaker State has the highest sheer protection of any oil on the market. I'm using it in my Chevy van that has 620,000 miles on it.

[@gudlutripathy3283]

I use the Shell advanced ultra 10w 40 fully synthetic oil for my 2004 model 125cc Hero super splendor. Engine always feels super refined alike new with this oil...Amazing stuff...

[@CheckFacts360]

I'm glad to hear you're happy with your oil choice!

[@Wizard6]

You should look at the oil cap or owner's manual or ask at Autozone "What's the right Oil to put in my "2004 mode 125cc " or the motorcycle shop. Cars today are very sensitive and generally use 5-30, 5-20, 0-20 motor oils. Cars after the eighties don't recommend 10-40W oil or 10-30W.. Are you talking about a motor cycle?

[@gudlutripathy3283]

@Wizard6 yes...mine has a motorcycle brother.

[@Funkydood]

QUAKER STATE A BAD ENGINE OIL?! NO WAY!!!

[@Bryan-Hensley]

It's actually the best on the market. It has the highest sheer protection of any oil on the market. I'm going to forward this video to their legal team.

[@kennyplay5982]

Yeaah, this video is BS. Lol

[@analogueoverdigital929]

Idk i usually run valvoline, Castrol, penzoil or Quaker.. never did me wrong. Full synthetic, and i still change the oil at 3500k

[@CheckFacts360]

That’s great to hear that you’re changing your oil frequently.

[@twobeagles1365]

I never have used those oils. When in doubt have a oil analysis done to see how the oil performance actually is. I like olive oil !

[@Wizard6]

Dude, they are not talking about salad Oil, the oil she is talking about is the stuff you put in your car engine. Don't confused the issue, some "wokie" will probably put olive oil in their engine and wonder why locks up. You and I both know, you don't put "motor Oil" on your salad, but you don't know what a "Woke" will do. There was a video of a "woke" girl pouring water into her engine where the oil goes and saying she didn't need no man telling her what to do. Wonder how far she got before her engine locked up?

[@twobeagles1365]

@@Wizard6 LMAO, I know but You have a good point , We don't know what the woke will do." But yet, we kinda do.

[@tonycolca2241]

All of these brands except quaker state appear to be counterfeit. I have never heard of any of them and don't know where they are sold except Amazon basics it tests right with super tech wally world brand. Oil is required to have certain info listed by law. I think some of the never heard of brands might be on sale somewhere other than the USA

[@CheckFacts360]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge on engine oils.

[@marxandrews5074]

Thanks for this information on motor oil

[@CheckFacts360]

You're welcome, it's important to use the right oil for your car.

[@georgepalau9329]

Yo, “Checkfacts”! Get your facts straight! Your video is trash!

[@sportsmansparadice42]

I never heard of any of these oil brands except for Amazon.

[@kirkkohnen5050]

If the oil meets your engine's specs, it's fine. Look for the API starburst, the appropriate rating (SP is the latest) and the viscosity recommended by your car's maker. If it's GM, look for the appropriate Dexos spec (1 or 2, depending on the type of engine). This video unfairly picks on Amazon and Quaker Stater oils which meet appropriate specs.

[@CheckFacts360]

I appreciate your perspective.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

Yeah, Quaker State is the only thing I use after researching it and finding it has the highest sheer protection of any oil on the market. I've probably got around 2 million miles combined (HVAC company vans and personal vehicles) using Quaker State with absolutely no issues from the engines..

[@palomarjack]

Modern oils are NOT supposed to have zinc in them. It damages catalytic converters. Older engines with flat lifters need oil with zinc, there are zinc additives and substitutes for those.

[@twobeagles1365]

They still have zinc , just lowered levels, check product data sheet to find how much is in the oil.

[@ghosttowntreasurehunter6089]

Quaker State and Amazonbasics oils are fine oils. The other are most likely crap. Quaker State Full Syn oil has the strongest film strength of any oil on the market, that includes Amsoil.

[@CheckFacts360]

I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on the oils in the video!

[@glenwebster2481]

Other the Quaker State I never heard of these oils

[@terryjohnson7572]

Quaker State has been around longer than I was born in 1960. That's the only one on her list I've heard of. If you want the best, get Amsoil . That's all Rolls-Royce puts in their engines. Mobile is right under it, according to a comparison done by amsoil in the 80's. My neighbor has a Cub cadet has a 23 horsepower. He never changed it in 7 years or added. Amsoil makes the oil. I changed it for him he bought a kit and did other maintenance to it. Yes it's high, the oil in any engine is the bearing.

[@Wizard6]

I change oil in my lawn mowers, Portable Generators, and tractors at the start of the season and then on the 4th of July. The worse thing you can do to an engine is run it low on oil, or run it too long on dirty oil. 7years on any internal combustion engine without changing oil is "cruel and unusual" punishment to any enigne/motor.

[@allamar9083]

Where in the heck did you find these oils? Paraguay,Uganda,? We used re-claimed in the 50,s in our junkers (glass bottle at cheap gas stations). Never heard of any of these wierd brands.

[@johnlacroix1639]

WOW amazing TY so much ,,Keep up the great work

[@CheckFacts360]

I appreciate the support!

[@oneninerniner3427]

What the heck is PQI ? Never heard of most of those brands and almost everything this woman talked about. Gibberish . Although i would never use any of them anyway.

[@JohnEasterling-e7b]

Wesson oil all the way.

[@CheckFacts360]

I wouldn't recommend that!

[@cruisingthethaiway6881]

Should always use full synthetic. Don't use a Blend oil. Absolutely never use oil additives. Valvoline restore & protect is the good stuff. Max Life for diesels. Shell is good. Amsoil and Motul is very good. Top Ter brands are ok. ASE certified master technician..., retired.

[@CheckFacts360]

Great point!

[@normanrowlands4299]

Oils must meet specs on bottle. Lot of misinformation. Have not heard of most of these oils. Use group 4 or group 5 base oils

[@CheckFacts360]

Thanks for sharing your expertise!

[@iancoles1349]

They must be bad u are told they are compliance people 😂😂😂😂😂

[@jayfurness6695]

I have not even seen any of these ? No where. Amsoil.

[@Ridesmule]

Mobile 1 for me, can’t go wrong. You aren’t going to save money by saving $5 on oil, you’ll pay a lot more down the road for engine repairs.

[@CheckFacts360]

Thanks for sharing your experience!

[@erniebrillantes602]

They all recycled oil

[@SpankyCool-ib3pc]

The only Oil comes close to Amsoil. Was Mobil 1, Period. Lake Speed Jr. Laboratories.

[@RobertSchmidt-e6s]

Wrong, pennzoil ultra is the #2 best oil.

[@DennisTate01]

Lake finally tested Amsoil. I know he said Penzoil Ultra Platinum was good stuff.

[@robertmcnair983]

Castrol is no good it will burn engine parts up
