Description
Pennzoil Platinum full synthetic SAE 0W-20 motor oil is uniquely engineered from our revolutionary PurePlus gas-to-liquid technology, which is a patented process that converts pure natural gas into a high quality, full synthetic base oil. Our high-quality base oil is 99.5% pure, contains fewer impurities than base oils made from crude oil, and when combined with our advanced additive technology creates one of the best formulations in our Pennzoil portfolio. Pennzoil Platinum full synthetic SAE 0W-20 motor oil is licensed and meets the vehicle warranty requirements of GM's dexos 1 Gen 2 specifications that are set forth to meet today's modern engine technologies. This means that our Pennzoil Platinum full synthetic products meet the stringent requirements of leading car manufacturers. Why does this matter? Modern engine technologies have evolved over the years and today's engine parts have reached an unprecedented level of fine manufacturing tolerances which require a high-quality engine oil to help provide complete engine protection. This includes protection against abnormal combustion phenomenon like low-speed pre-ignition observed in modern turbocharged gasoline direct injection (TGDI) engines. Our Pennzoil Full Synthetic products are engineered for modern engines and offer the following benefits without compromise:

Q: I have a 2024 Mini Countryman Cooper S in the US (model F60). The manual says to use BMW Longlife-17 FE+ engine oil. Is this synthetic 0W-20 engine oil equivalent to BMW Longlife-17 FE+ engine oil?

A: Hi Daniel, We appreciate your interest in our products. This product doesn't have BMW LongLife-17 FE+ approval. Kind regards, Shell Technical Information Center

I've been using it for several years. But it has been out of stock for a long time. You can only buy small bottles, which increases the cost. As a result, I am now considering switching to other brands of products.I hope to speed up the processing of the out-of-stock problem.

I am considering using this oil in our 2011 Escape Hybrid. However, the product label lists a different Ford specification than that shown in the owner's manual. Since the manual calls for an older specification, I came to the Pennzoil website for clarification. The website does list the older specification, but it does not mention to specification shown on the product label. If the product is good for both specifications, that's great, but why would I trust that to be the case when the website doesn't even list the specification shown on the product label? Formulations change, and I appreciate that. That's why I depend on a manufacturer to let me know what specifications and applications their products are designed to meet. Disappointing.

Used to meet or exceed HTO-06 standards. Now (eg Apr 2024) labeling in the bottle indicates it is not (eg not indicated anymore). Very odd labeling or maybe it did not pass standard? Or even bother testing again?

I used to buy quaker state but when i did a teardown and rebuild of my dodge ram engine i found a lot of oil sludge at the bottom a friend suggested Pennzoil which I tried and when I re did my engine there was no sludge the journeys and components were completely scoured clean and there was zero wear on bearings and pistons I'm amazed Now I only use Pennzoil in all my gasoline and diesel engines

I bought my car in Feb 2014. It had very low miles but I immediately took it to have the oil changed to Penzoil Platinum Full Synthetic. I wanted to keep my engine. clean and this is the one I chose after doing my research. I am so glad I chose it because it is now 19 years later and not one issue with my engine and I have 74,741 miles for 10 years of ownership. Low miles but no issues I recommend this oil to everyone who cares about their vehicles engine.
