Have you tried Maxlife Full synthetic? My 4.0L doesn’t burn or leak any oil but since it’s got almost 100K I figure why not. Back when I had my beloved 3.4L I ran Mobil HM with 190K.
Valvoline Advanced Synthetic 5W30 Users ?

I haven't yet. But I've used M1 HM in my daughter's Yaris for 3 years now. Seems to like it. Recently I found some ML FS on sale. That will be the next OC on her car. So we'll see how it goes....which I'm sure will be fine, as every Toyota engine I've ever owned seem to not give 2 F's what oil was in it.
I just hit 80k on the Taco. At some point in the next couple of OCs I plan to switch to a HM formula....probably M1....but maybe Valvoline....maybe both

For the first time I have Valvoline 5W-30 Advanced Synthetic in my car. I don't know if it's better than most but the engine idles so smoothly that I look at the tachometer to be sure it's running. It might just be the same with most other oils but I don't know this yet.
Check your SP densities units!
Yeah, they'll different units and would have to convert to compare the actual difference.
Look again. That should be g/cm³, not g/m³. I don't know whether it's Valvoline's error or yours.
Can't be mine ... those are screenshots of Valvoline's specification sheets. I didn't make those tables.
^^ Oil that's less dense than air might be difficult to keep down in a typical oil pan.
Must be a miracle oil since the KV100 and HTSH viscosity is still so good.
It's obviously a typo by Valvoline.
