Editor's Summary
I'm consistently impressed with the value for money this oil offers. The 5w30 and 5w40 variants are pretty similar, but the 5w40 seems to use a bit less in my Volkswagen engine. I've found it on marketplaces for around 3,500 to 4,000 rubles for 4 liters, and the authenticity check on the Ravinol website gives me peace of mind. The engine runs smoothly, and I've had no issues with it. It's a great option for anyone looking for a reliable oil at a reasonable price. Plus, regular sales and discounts make it an even better value.
Specifications
I've been running this oil in my Skoda Rapid, and I've gotta say, it's a great value for the money. I switch between the 5w30 and 5w40, depending on what's on sale. Honestly, I haven't noticed a huge difference between the two, except the 5w40 seems to use a bit less in my Volkswagen engine - you know, that infamous oil-guzzler.
I pick it up on marketplaces, and it usually costs around 3,500 to 4,000 rubles for 4 liters (sometimes I can snag 5 liters on sale). I'm not worried about buying it online because the can has a check code under a protective layer, and you can verify it on the Ravinol website (just search for 'Ravinol authenticity check'). The risk of counterfeit oil is pretty low, and even some pricier brands don't offer this level of protection.
As for finding this oil, it's not hard - you can get it in stores, online, or even on the used car market. It's pretty widely available.
The engine runs smoothly on this oil, and it does its job without complaint. I change my oil every 7-8,000 kilometers, and it's still pretty dark after that. The cleaning functions work well, and I've noticed my engine uses about 200-300 grams of oil per thousand kilometers - which is pretty standard for my Volkswagen engine.
I've been using this oil for a while now, and I've put around 60-70,000 kilometers on it. It starts up just fine in the winter (although we don't get too harsh winters in central Russia).
This oil is a great choice for the price. It's not the cheapest, but it's definitely worth every penny.
