What’s everyone running for oil

I got a 2017 tundra with a 57 I just got it a month ago it’s got about 63,000 on it I’ve noticed they sound like diesels I’m mean not quite but Our engines seem noisy?? She’s my first tundra that ticking noise normal??

 

Pennzoil platinum full synthetic 0w20. Impressed with it, made the engine quiet down a lot. Had the same complaint as you when I first bought my truck.

 

The dealership changed it but with what I don’t know

 

I've had no problems with mobil1, pennzoil platinum, supertech, and kirkland. I prefer kirkland(costco) now because their synthetic is only $22 for 10 qts.

OMG do a search....

 

Slippery stuff. Don’t worry about the noise, as long as you use decent oil of the recommended viscosity and change it per the manual, you’re good.

 

Amsoil Signature 0w-20

 

I like canola, less fat

Serious, Mobil 1 is all I use. Nothing wrong with the others, I just like it.

 

Amazon has good synthetic oil as well, at a great price. I’ve seen some tests that compare it to Mobil 1 and other popular synthetics. It performs really well and costs about half as much.

 

Mobile1, Total synthetic 0-20

 

Looking at the Amazon oil, price is not off that much from my local Wally World. 22-25$ a jug for Mobile 1. Get the 0W20 and 0W40 for tundra and Porsche Boxster. My local tractor supply had 5W20 Mobile 1 Synthetic on clearance for 14$ a jug. ( bought all that was on the shelf)

Mobil 1 or Valvoline Synthetic. However, you cannot go wrong with any of the available synthetic oils on the market today.

 

If you want to quiet it down run 5w30. I personally have 5w30 Shell Rotella Gas Truck oil in mine. 0w20 is only speced in the US to meet CAFE standards by very marginally increasing milage. Toyota allows 5w30 in the Tundra 5.7 in Mexico and also allows it in the same 5.7 in the Land Cruiser world wide.

 

Mobil 1 EP (Extended Performance) 0w-20. It currently has a rebate ($12 per 5qt jug, limit 2).

 

Mobil one Wally World 5 qt jug for $22... Napa Gold filters. Hit up "bob is the oil guy". There are better oils, but for the money, I rather do mobil 1 at regular service intervals. I have had three vehicles with over 150k on the clocks and never skipped a beat.

 

Mobil1 in every vehicle i've owned. Lucas Oil grease for lubrication in any machine i own.

 

I got a hell of an education on grease with trailer wheel bearings, boat trailers, and heavy equipment. Cheap grease costs a LOT of money!!! LOL

If I'm in a pinch 5w30 Magnatec

 

0W-20 Castrol Magnatec mainly.
Have used Wally World SuperTech and also Mobil 1. I am a light-duty, low-annual-mileage driver...they all work the same.
The Castrol 5-quart jugs on Amazon are actually cheaper than the WM SuperTech many times, particularly if you do the Subscribe and Save.

Appreciate all your advise guys much appreciated!! And as the obnoxious remark stating do my research it was an honest question!! Isn’t this what this forum is for? It’s my first v8 And I’ve heard a lot of trucks that don’t sound like these do that’s all I was getting at. Thanks again

 

It's only because this question has been asked a million times. No hard feelings.

 

It's like a beer. Try different ones, it doesn't hurt anything. Personally, I use Pennzoil ultra now.

 

As long as you don't run the cheapest crap on the shelf, you'll be just fine

But.......my personal favorite:


I run Rotella T6 in my turbo GTO and it's fantastic. I have done an oil analysis to back it up, and I plan to do it on the Tundra once it's ready for the next oil change.

 

The only oil that touches my Vehicles is Valvoline. I tried Mobil 1 before but then saw where it didn’t do so good in a wear test. That same wear test I saw clearly showed Amsoil as the premium oil. I’d be interested in switching to Amsoil.
