    Brand recommendation for Power tools (drill, small impact, screwdriver) for apartment?

My work mates use Milwaukee and they works all great but i prefeer the Hikoki a little smaller and lighter in the 1/2" impact and do the same work. At home i have Makita who has...

    Would you continue using Mannol?

    In my opinion its better to buy a good oil with the specs your engine require. Why would a additive make a good oil better than the engineers and chemists at a well known oil refinery made it ?

    Would you continue using Mannol?

    The big issue with Mannol is that you dont know whats in the jug. When they lied about approvals what makes me then belive what API/ACEA standards and viscosity i buy in the jug of Mannol ? Better stay to manufacturs that really have an approval.

    Would you continue using Mannol?

    Yes thats true if you can confirm the approval to be legit. Mannol has been claim for approvals they dont have like Dexos 1 for an example.

    Does Castrol need better products or marketing?

    Here in Sweden Castrol is expensive and i often find Mobil or Shell to a better price and that is the main point that Im not buying Castrol.

    Castrol Edge 0W40 A3/B4 vs Shell Helix Ultra 5W40

    20% improved milage is a lot and every car makers dream. Sounds totally impossible to get that result with a different oil brand.

    Would you continue using Mannol?

    No I dont trust Mannol products after what i found out about how they pretended to have Dexos licensed oils and later they changed it to equal to. Still have Mannol in the truck but next oilchange it will be something else and the jugs with Mannol i have left will going to lawnmover and used as...

    Mobil1 ESP 5W-30 vs Shell Helix Ultra ECT 0W-30

    Yes I know Shell is the owner of the brands. What i see is that Pennzoil has so many more options that is Dexos licensed and also QS a desent oil for the money. I would buy QS and change it more frequently than a expensive top brand oil It for sure will work to usa a MB classified oil in a VAG...

    Mobil1 ESP 5W-30 vs Shell Helix Ultra ECT 0W-30

    Got the oil delivered today. But i was reading the dexos spec to fast this 0w20 is not dexos licensed its the 5w20 that has dexos1 gen2 classification. To bad that we dont have Quaker State and Pennzoil distributors here in Europe. But i still think this Helix Ultra SP 0w20 is good to run.

    Mobil1 ESP 5W-30 vs Shell Helix Ultra ECT 0W-30

    Just made an order on 3x5L Helix Ultra SP 0w20 from Weboil. Dexos 1 gen 2 fits me fine to the Chevy I got some Mobil 1 AFE 0w20 at home so i will decide later on if I go for the Mobil1 or Shell for the winter. Been running on Mannol for a while but found out that they not have the Dexos...

    Mobil1 ESP 5W-30 vs Shell Helix Ultra ECT 0W-30

    Also living in Sweden and just want to ask where you find the Shell oil to a good price ? In the early 2000 years I bought Shell oils in Södertälje to good price but havent found any place to buy oil to good price the last 10 years exept for ordering from Germany.
