Good Oil
Date:January 13, 2012
"I use this is my 2000 GMC Sierra. I find I get a bit better milage and it reduces the ticking sounds in the engine, I also use a litre of lucus oil stabilizer for every oil change."

best high mileage oil made
Date:November 5, 2011
"Have used this oil in many older cars and I am a collector of classic muscle cars.
BEST oil on the market for cars 100K-200k and beyond. Had a 3.8L Grand prix that had 600+k on this oil and was still going strong when my wife cracked it up :-("

Engine saver
Date:March 4, 2011
"Last year, I noticed that my 05 Altima 3.5S (bought used at 64,000Km) was "very enthusiastic" burning oil. It burned a lot, like about 2L per 5000Km. It then had just over 100,000Km on it, which isn't old. There's no way it should burn that much. So I switched to this high mileage oil. The car was then on a stay of execution. One more hassle (on top of many) and I would have sold it.. But this oil really does a super job. After first using this oil, I waited 5000Km before the next change... It turns out that the oil consumption dropped from 2L to a very small amount, approx 1/4L. I couldn't believe it, but the next change at 5000Km confirmed it. Again, it seemed to have burned only about 1/4L. Highly recommended!"

Great quality!
Date:October 18, 2008
"Best oil I've ever used. I have been using the 5w30 oil on my Grand AM for the past 2 years with no complaints. My engine has 190K and runs smooth. No knocking and no loss of power. Highly recommend to anyone who's car has 120K or more."

Well worth the money
Date:September 19, 2008
"Worth the money and the only brand I used.
Soon as my ride hit the 120,000km mark. It got the high mileage rather than the plan GTX."

Keeps the older car on the road
Date:May 20, 2008
"Best way to pamper a vehicle that has a couple hundred thousand kilometers on it -- this oil will help you get more performance out of an older engine."

less burn offs
Date:September 20, 2007
"Great oil. I have over 240K on my vehicle. I used to burn off about 1/3 liter of oil every 1500km. Ever since I started using High-Milage GTX, I only burn off about 1/3 liter every 3500km. To top up, I use the Motomaster version of High-Milage."
