2020 Member Oil Change Results (updated)

[Jetronic]

I did one oil change with Total quartz 9000 0w-30 on my own car, and hundreds with total quartz ineo mds 5w30 on customer cars. didn't post those though

It’s an interesting list, and a lot of work.

Unfortunately, it only measures what members post, not what members use.

I did several oil changes last year, but didn’t post them, so my own cars would change the results (Mobil 3, Castrol 2, AMSOIL 1, Pennzoil 2).

Still, it’s an interesting look into what BITOG favors.

No idemistu?

Or

RGT?

I believe I had a RGT post last year.
It must be in Miscellaneous

Wow! Great job. Nice to see someone putting in some time for the greater good. Too bad there isn't a forum function (poll?) that can do this as we go.

 

[Superbuick96]

Yes it sure did, I didn’t see anything wrong with many of the posts which are now gone. Everybody was talking oil.

I asked the moderator to delete the first thread, I should have asked them to edit rather then scrap it,and start over. Nobody made inappropriate comments. It's sort of frustrating I can't edit myself I've made several errors so far posting this info. The forum moderators have been super helpful though!

I've been on here more than three days and I can't remember editing ever causing an issue. Because I always quote the Op so they can't deny something later mostly.

Ahhh, OK, that explains it.

 

[PimTac]

No one uses shell?

I would say that Shell is well represented in that list.

QS and pennzoil yes but no shell RGT or regular shell? I know some people use t6 in these forums. I have enough RGT for at least 3 years.

OK, thanks, that makes more sense.

Also thank you for doing the list.

Thank you for all that work!

I gathered the information from my "Post your latest oil change" thread. This was more time consuming than I thought, but it was interesting to see the results. I can't promise the final tally is 100% perfect but it is very close. My eyes started to cross going through a year of submissions after awhile, the 6 or 7 Natural Lights may have played into that too? I'm aware that this list isn't presicion, I didnt set out to make this my lifes work, so don't judge it too harshly. Maybe next year I'll dial the results in more and list every oil by name with the exception of Frankenbrews with are combonations of 2 or more oils. The miscellaneous category of Dealer oil changes, or brands of oil's used that were less than 2 . Anyway this list gives you an idea if you are interested, of what members used in the wonderful year that was 2020.

Mobil 230
Pennzoil 132
Vavoline 105
Shell 101
Amsoil 99

Thank you for taking the time to compile this. Really interesting.

 

[jagdriver727]

Very interesting, thanks for pulling all that data.

I must be the only one using Harvest King and posting about it

 

[Kira]

1) Thanks for the compilation time & effort.
2) Maybe availability / price plays a big part (low Schaffer's, no Ravenol or RedLine).

 

[cos]

Nice job! That list must have taken some serious time.
I see that I'm 1 of 4 that used O'Reilly's oil.

 

[Falcon_LS]

Petro-Canada: 1

😁

Thank you for the hard work putting this together!

 

[Averroes]

If we combine Shell/SOPUS it overtakes M1 but no biggie, that’s the power of subsidiaries. Good stuff!

Mobil is a King in the world of oil sales.

*Checks signature and stash* Yep! LOL!

 

[Turbo Actual]

This is a good idea OP. I like it. I happen to be on the Mobil list.
