Any Ravenol users here?

This is a solid one for a 0w-20, their 30 is as stout. I will appreciate the users of this oil chime in. It has one big edge over other Boutiques, approvals.

 

[thescreensavers]

It essentially only has 1 approval? would be better list what car it's going into and what OCI you are looking to do.

They have a ton of good oils but this one is not one I would ever purchase simply because they have much better Euro oils that cost the same amount.

Jeep Gladiator with 3.6 V6, requires Chrysler MS-6395. 7,500 mile OCI.

Will check them out.

I mean, it's not in spec but I would probably run Ravenol VMP or SSL in this if I owned it if you insist on Ravenol. M1 ESP 0W-30 if not.

Any synthetic will be fine. Some people will even say to use 0w30 or 5w30

Okay oil. Would use if the price was right, but guessing isn’t.

 

[facility1]

this oil looks very good.

Yep, got 10 quarts of Amsoil 0w-30. I am good for now. This Ravenol seems pretty good and has approvals. Will definitely consider it in future

I am using/have run Ravenol VSE 0W20 & VSW 0W30 in my '21 Audi SQ5 Sportback and '23 Audi RS5 Competition Coupe, respectively.

5k OCIs. Very good UOA results (I've posted them in the UOA forum here on BITOG).

It has pretty much all the approvals that off the shelf oils have. Or what am I missing?

 

[Glenda W.]

If chasing approvals I’d stick with the top shelf at Walmart. If chasing the best of the best you already have one with SS.

Those are licenses snd specifications as far as I can see, not approvals (despite the heading). As others have noted there are less expensive oils that meet the same ones.

I have used the DFE 0w-20 in my Subaru OBW. However, currently I have Ravenol FES 0w-30 in the Subaru. Not sure what to say about it; I’ve never done a UOA.
