Review: Excellent quality perfect for my truck - Great Product perfect for my truck Review: Great for Mustang 5.0 - and a note regarding tick and rattle - First, a disclaimer: if you ask 10,000 car nuts what their favorite oil is, you'll get 10,000 answers and 10,000 reasons why. So, YMMV. I originally tried this oil on a Subaru Forester, and it made the engine considerably quieter to me, but even my mom asked why the engine was suddenly not making so much noise. So it's not just me! After success on that car, I was a fan of Pennzoil Platinum (here on out referred to as PP) so I decided to go with it on my Mustang. I had changed the factory fill at 3000 miles with Ford Motorcraft 5w20, which is semi-synthetic (a blend of conventional and synthetic). Now at 8000 miles, I changed it with PP 5w20. A note to fellow Coyote owners: the engine has the typical coyote 2200 rpm rattle as well as the tick, and no, neither of them went away after using this oil. Watch videos online regarding those issues and you will go down a several-month rabbit-hole and end up with more questions than answers. From what I've found, the rattle is piston slap, which is normal and actually common in racecars. The tick is axial movement of the bottom end of the con-rod against the crank, but both parts are hardened steel and no damage will happen, especially with an oil film there. Both of these noises are caused by looser tolerances, which means NVH, but also lots of power. I have found rebuilding a small engine with new bearings, honed cylinders, and new rings, that it ends up making less power. A loose engine is faster (unless there is blowby of course). My point: don't worry unless you find metal in the oil, or it blows up. Enjoy your car. Anyway, I digress. The rattle is a little quieter when cold, possibly indicating that this has more of a 'cushioning effect' of the piston skirts at lower temperatures than the Motorcraft oil. Typical of synthetic oils -- they are better at cold temps. One other thing I noticed was that the smell of Motorcraft oil and the smell of Castrol's 5w20 Fluid Titanium is the same. I don't know if this is the additive package or the base stock, but this Pennzoil Platinum does not smell the same as those two. Not sure what that means, just an observation. Anyway, this seems like good oil. I am not worried about my engine blowing up. I would not be worried tracking my car with this oil. Buy it if it is cheaper than Castrol or Motorcraft. ## Features - Full synthetic 5W-20 engine oil that is made with natural gas and designed for complete protection for top engine performance - Helps extend engine life and protects for up to 15 years or 500,000 miles, whichever comes first.

Yo uso 10W-30 sintético en los generadores y hasta la fecha, por más de 10 años, no he tenido problema. No uso ninguna marca especial y siempre busco no el más barato, pero el mejor aceite que este a bajo precio. **Q: Can I use 10-30 synthetic in my honda lawnmower that had 10-30 regular ?** A: Yes. Synthetic oil in your Honda mower will be an improvement to overall aspect of engine workings ... **Q: if your vehicle use regular oil, can synthetic oil damage your motor if being use in it?** A: As long as you've been using a detergent oil, the synthetic stuff will work better than fine. Note that most oils are detergent so I think you have very little to worry about. I know change oil every 8-10,000 miles. I'm confident my engine is fine... Compression has not fallen a whit. valve trail remains quiet as a could be. **Q: Is this better than mobil 1 advanced fuel economy, and if so, in what ways?** A: YES. Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is made with Natural Gas -- better than Mobil 1 in every category. Carries the newest API designation @ "P". Our V-8 and V-6 engines run smoother and quieter after changing from Mobil 1 to the Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5-W-30. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality perfect for my truck *by D***R on August 23, 2026* Great Product perfect for my truck ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Mustang 5.0 - and a note regarding tick and rattle *by J***H on March 15, 2020* First, a disclaimer: if you ask 10,000 car nuts what their favorite oil is, you'll get 10,000 answers and 10,000 reasons why.
