Eneos...
I started off using M1 and then switched to RP, but now use Eneos. Been using Eneos for almost a year now with very little oil consumption. I'll be switching out all other fluids on the bottom end with Eneos soon as well...

for those that like Mobil 1, Costco has a 9.00 off coupon going right now off of a 6qt case
Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.
That coupon comes out about once every 3 months or so. I always buy a case when I get one!![]()
I switched to Castrol Edge (another synthetic) from Mobil 1 in both vehicles (VX and Axiom) about 6 months ago, because it supposedly has better wear protection than M1. The VX consumes about the same oil as before, but the oil seems clearer/cleaner now whenever I change it. The Axiom, which is a much bigger oil guzzler than my VX ever thought of being, seems to consume less though. But I recently changed from a M1 filter to a K&N filter on the Axiom, so that might be it too. Castrol Edge never went on sale when it first came out and ran like $8 a bottle.But now AutoZone/Advance seem to alternate their sale prices on Castrol Edge and Mobil 1, with 5 quarts of either + a K&N filter running about $30.
FWIW, I personally have come to believe that checking your oil frequently (every fill-up or even after every drive) makes a far bigger difference in preventing a problem than any oil/filter combo you choose.
Xenum oil, http://www.xenum.be/, and some russian VX's use it too.
Did you see this oil in your country?
