would this oil work in Diesel applications? I have a 2006 VW TDI diesel and am trying to figure out if the NoVII is a good fit for this engine. Anyone out there use this in their diesel or have insights whether this is good?

according to the manual, normal use is 7,500mi OCI and severe use is 3,750. Some people say you must change the oil on this vehicle every 3,000 miles but I think that is a waste unless you are using cheap oils. With good synthetic, VRP has good UOAs, I think I am playing it safe at 5k miles...

I guess what you are saying is that the oil will somehow start eating at the metal parts of the engine once the Carbon Build Up is gone? I can’t see how this oil could start doing anything bad to an engine once it is clean. Parts of the engine are going to clean at different rates. It’s not as...

It’s a good testimonial. Personally I like hearing about people’s experience with whatever oil they are using, it’s a big part of why I joined this forum. I think every new post about someone’s experience with Valvoline Restore and Protect is especially valuable seeing as it is still a...

I’ve seen posts about how people try VRP oil, see amazing results like their car no longer burning oil, then they say “well the problem is fixed now I’ll go back to the same old oil that I was using when this problem started”. It makes no sense. If the oil made your car run cleaner, keep using...

Per carfax, Oil was previously done at a dealer at 5k mile OCI since new. No idea what oil was used and the last oil change was just done at a quickie lube place. I sent Valvoline an email asking about using VRP in a low mileage engine because someone on another forum said it could be bad for...

Question: Doesn't the necessity of following the severe mileage schedule mean that the issues do have something to do with the oil? If it had nothing to do with the oil, it wouldn't matter how often you changed the oil. At least that is my reasoning. In your history maintaining these vehicles...

There are two misconceptions out there I can't quite get a straight answer on from searching this and other forums. They are connected so I will keep them to one post. 1) All over this forum and others I have seen people saying they run a heavier grade oil for the summer months, and a lighter...

Hi BITOG, This is my first post so I thought I would share how I ended up here! Just bought a 2019 Kia Sedona LX with the 3.3L Lamda GDI engine 27,000 miles. These are not known as the most reliable car, but my hope is that with correct maintenance it will last. After reading up on these...
