This Castrol Euro 0W-40 quieted down my GM 2.4L (with 149,000 miles) like no other oil I've tried... EVER! It's never run so smooth.


I swear, it's the best thing I've done for my commuter car is quite some time. :)

I was a die-hard Amsoil fan (348k miles on 1992 300D Turbo w/doubled OCI), but when others are MB approved, cost half as much, and have the same recommended drain interval......:unsure:
2 more changes of Castrol C3 are in the garage.
 
Hey SOPUS-user, how you finding the Castrol Magnatec ?
Good stuff. I actually had this 5 quart bottle for some time. It was hiding in my garage. More than likely though I'll go back to QSFS based on price, performance and local availability (the local Wally World keeps it in stock). For some reason the Magnatec has gone up in price in my area. But I do like the Magnatec. My son had a leased Subaru Impreza (now gone-I think this bottle was on hand before he traded away that car). The Magnatec was the only oil that didn't have any usage in that car. Everything else he ran burned off; some more than others.
