conventional Valvoline or PYB for 5000 OCI?

[Mark72]

I know that each car is different and may do better on one brand vs another....but for the most part, does Valvoline or Pennzoil seem to hold up better for a 4-5K OCI?

 

[zrxkawboy]

I wouldn't hesitate to use either one.

 

[jstutz]

i dont know if there is anything overly special about either over the other. They both appear to be good oils and produce good UOA's.

 

[sparkplug]

Pick the cheapest but I'd go for the Valvoline. Personal preference.

 

[Nick R]

I'd pick the Pennzoil YB myself.

 

[Eric24]

I like Pennzoil.

 

[Mark72]

some of you have mentioned that PYB has a better add pack? better base oil? this so?

 

[aquariuscsm]

Me,it`d be a very hard decision. Both are amazing oils!

 

[ryan2022]

For a full 5K Id probably swing towards YB, BUT I've had great luck with Valvoline WB.

 

[77GrandPrix]

Both are very good oils!! I prefer Valvoline but would not hesitate to use Pennzoil.

going Valvoline conventional for 5000 miles in my next oil change.

valvoline would be my choice. i wouldnt hesitate to use the pennzoil though. i used to "fear" pennzoil but this website has straightened me out on that. thanks to this site i now use mobil 1 though. if i was to choose between the 2 you have listed today, i would choose whichever is cheaper. if they were the same price though, like i said, valvoline.

Valvoline, without question. personal preference, but both are good oils.

 

[Mark72]

Does one appear to have a more robust add pack than the other?

 

[dsmith41]

I flipped a coin and it came out PYB.

 

[sangyup81]

whichever is cheaper

 

[Johnny]

I flipped a coin and to be fair I made it the best 4 out o 7 flips. Wouldn't you know, the first 4 flips came up PYB.

 

[Mark72]

Out of all seriousness, I know that one could flip a coin and either would do fine..But has either one of these outperformed the other more often? Does one have a better additive package?
