Which is the best engine oil for our S2? experience?

the one I'm using now is very expensive (at least i think),
like around 10 USD for a litre(correct unit?)
I paid about 60 USD for just changing oil with oil filter.

It's recommended by AnJ. It's called something Molly...
Anyone knows?

Any other highly recommended engine oil?

 

Mobil 1 is about as good as it gets.

 

CASTROL 0-30 SLX, OR ARAL 0-40 SUPERTRONIC. (IF AVAILABILITY APPLIES IN THE STATES)

 

Mobil 1 5w30 is what I've been using for years. It's more expensive but less expensive that a new motor. Mechanics have rebuilt motors with over 100,000 miles and said the inside of the motor is practically new.

I use Mobil 1 10W/30 and happy with that.

 

Practically everyone will have a different opinion on this. I'm going with what Honda recommends at my dealership, Castrol Syntec. It's carried me for 15K miles with no problems whatsoever.

 

Castrol is also a big bulk supplier to shops. I've lugged many a 55 gal. drum of it myself. Every shop recommends what they have and I can tell you what they have has more to do with how much it costs than with the quality of the oil. That said, Castrol is decent oil.

I use Mobil 1 and have had longstanding good success.

 

My S2000 gets Mobil 1 10w30 with Honda filter.

My daily driver ('87 Ford Bronco II) I've always just used Havoline 10w40 with a Fram filter. Over 200k miles without a single mechanical failure. Still runs great and even passed its smog check this week. I have no complaints about Havoline.

The best engine oil is mostly "clean" oil. You can have the most expensive synthetic brand you can find, but if you don't change it when your suppose to, it won't mean much.

 

I run Mobil 1. However, I took the advice of a service manager at the dealership, and didn't start using it until I hit 6000 miles. He says that the stuff is so good at inhibiting friction that an engine will break in better with regular oil than with Mobil 1. He said that he learned this from experience with racing engines.
