How is Zhvanetsky about the difficulties of choice? "Five are very big, but yesterday. And today three, but small. " With engine oil as well. Expensive imported synthetics, which promises to hold out 15,000 km, or affordable russian oilwhich is twice as much more often - here is the choice!

A purely money question is aside aside. Now we are interested in exclusively the health of the motor, and therefore comparable levels of pollution, control the wear and we estimate the savings of fuel.

We limit the choice

We are not going to compare the top supersinthetics with the cheapest mineralka, the prices of which are sometimes spent twenty times. We are interested in those oils that can be recommended for the same motor. We owe the coincidence of the SAE viscosity classes - and we will take the most common class 5W-40. Must match the categories of quality. Modern expensive synthetics do not fall below the SN / CF level aPI classification (A3 / B4 via ACEA) - here on it and let's stop. The car manufacturer usually does not specify the type of oil, but to compare the synthetic with the mineral water is something awkward.

As a result, we chose two synthetic oils - the European price of 1950 rubles for a four-liter canister and Russian: 940 rubles for the same capacity. The European took one canister, and the Russian - two, because it will have to change 7500 km.

About Methodology

Motor VAZ-21126 on the road and at cheap oils worked in fully equivalent conditions - in the same modes, on the same gasoline, at the same outdoor temperature. The number of hours in both cases is equivalent to 15,000 km of run. Moreover, Russian oil in the middle of the "distance" replaced the fresh.

We studied the dynamics of changes in the parameters of the engine (power, efficiency and toxicity of exhaust gases), periodically selected samples to investigate the pace of aging oil and accumulation of wear products. At the end of the test, the motor opened and evaluated the color scale of deposits after work on one or another oil. Before and after testing, piston rings and bearings crankshaftTo assess the wear rate of the main friction nodes.

What we saw

Expensive oil for a complete test cycle did not lose performance, although the parameters spoke noticeably - both in the oil and the engine. Fuel consumption at the time of the end of the tests grew by 3-4% compared with the initial stage; Power fell by 2.5%. For 15,000 km of conventional mileage, a little less than a liter of oil from the flooded initially four was left. That is, the mode "from shift to shift without an attraction" was set aside.

When working on budget oil, the engine initially showed a little greater fuel consumption (+ 1.5%) than on European. Obviously, this is a consequence of a higher viscosity, non-leaving, however, beyond the admission to SAE for oils of this class. This gave a small (almost within the error), but a steady increase in power (slightly less than 1%). Budget oil quite expected was the higher dynamics of aging. For half of the test cycle (7500 km), fuel consumption increased by 2.1% (when operating on the road - by 1.5%). The second half of the tests, after replacing the oil, the engine worked almost the same way - the difference between the final measurements by 7,500 and 15,000 km lies within the measurement error. As a result, the engine on two fillings of the budget oil worked more economically than on the same fill of the road: the difference in favor of the domestic product was 1.1-3.0%, depending on the mode of operation (on average -1.5%).

Analysis of the main physicochemical parameters of oils characterizing the pace of their aging confirmed the results motor tests. For expensive oil at the end of the "Rabach" (15,000 km), viscosity increased by 11%, alkaline number It has decreased by 30%, however, the indicators beyond the limits of brave. In an inexpensive oil after 7500 km, the viscosity growth was 3.5% (first fill) and 5.8% (second fill), and the sample from the second half of the "run" the rate of aging was higher: contamination has affected fresh oil The remains of the spent, which were not merged when replacing. The alkaline number of the village is 13-15% relative to the initial value - by the way, higher (this is good for serious Russian conditions) than the expensive oil of European production.

And now we will estimate the result in the money. One canister of dear European oil, one filter plus the cost of replacing the oil is about 2350 rubles. Two capacities of budget, two filters, two replacements are 2680 rubles. If the work is not taken into account (that is, changing the oil yourself), the costs are equal to 2050 and 2080 rubles, respectively. And if you take into account the difference in fuel consumption? On the domestic oil, the motor was 1.5% more economically, and for each test cycle, about a thousand liters of "ninety-fifth" eaten. If you take the price equal to 38 rugs per liter, it will be 570 rubles of economy. Not much, but the balance has swung in the direction of more frequent oil replacement.

However, the fuel gain is not the most important thing. More importantly, motor well-being. Evaluation criteria Three: reliability of work (no failures due to application suitable oil), clean surfaces, wear.

Reliability of work is complete. There was no failure during the tests, an emergency oil tank was not required. However, we did not expect from the oils of the quality group of the other than SN. The level of high-temperature deposits in both cases was almost the same. Obviously, not to lose european Oil With higher quality, Russian has been able thanks to a smaller interval of replacement. Yes, and the initial (as well as the final) alkaline number from our oil is higher, and this is one of the indirect indicators of detergent. As for low-temperature deposits on the surfaces of the valve mechanism and oil pan, the European product worked a little better. Everything is obvious here: it uses better basic base oil. However, the difference is close to the error of the test method.

But when evaluating the degree of wear, we found an explicit effect of an intermediate oil replacement. This is especially noticeable by piston rings (and therefore in cylinders). The dirt accumulated in oil, especially metal particles, facilitated from the surface of the parts, works like abrasive, and no anti-empty additives high-quality oil With this misfortune do not cope. It will only help the timely removal of the abrasive from the motor - when changing the oil. It is impossible to make accurate recalculation in rubles in the rugs. But the scales bowl is increasingly inclined in favor of reducing the interservice interval.

Three or five?

So, our experiment quite proved the feasibility of using two domestic cans (THK Magnum Ultratec, Sintoil Platinum, Lukoil Suite) instead of one European ( Shell Helix. Ultra, Castrol Edge, Mobil Super 3000) - confirmed and wallet, and motor well-being.

Of course, it is possible to reduce the oil replacement interval using always only an expensive imported product - the use of the motor will be more. But about reasonable savings should not be forgotten.

In addition, we conducted tests in ideal conditions of the laboratory - warm, clean, on proven gasoline. And as practice shows (and our previous surveys in SM, 2015, No. 11), even expensive synthetics, not always withstands the notorious 15,000 km of run. Most marshmers think russian conditions Work is almost extreme. At the same time, everything that happens with the engine oil resembles the process of wear of any technical system: To some kind of work, aging is almost imperceptible, and then his pace grows sharply. In the technique, such a state is called catastrophic wear - and the same rule acts for oil. It is important to change the oil before the onset of this critical moment.

So, even "steep" oil, surrender, damages the motor. And to protect yourself from trouble, it is necessary to replace it more often. If it is not possible to often buy an expensive product, then knowingly high quality affordable oil Subject to the more frequent replacement it is more useful for the motor.

Best choice buyer
Country: Netherlands / United Kingdom
Average price: 1353 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.7

With semi-synthetic engine oil Shell Helix HX7 is a very dual situation. On the one hand, it costs less competitors, because it is "semi-synthetic". On the other hand, it has an obvious loss in operational characteristics, in many respects associated with the operating temperature range. But a curious fact and its direct dignity is a long operational period. The average duration of using one portion of the semi-synthetic oil is 3-5 thousand kilometers. This composition is capable of performing its function for 5-7 thousand kilometers, but its blackening is noted on an average standard mark.

At the same time, the owners could not identify the formation of a car and any noticeable consumption of engine oil, which for highly efficient engines is an excellent result. Related characteristics and reasonable price are highly evaluated.

Rating (2019): 4.9

A great error that the engine oil from Toyota can only be used in the respective cars. Yes, the manufacturer clearly prescribes such a recommendation for use, but in fact it can be pouring into any new engine that requires the oil class 5W-30. There are no complaints from the users any complaints - "Synthetics" serves a long time, does not form a car and has very good detergents. One bay is enough for 10 thousand kilometers of run. Yes, the price of the product is high, but it is fully justified by high quality inherent in Toyota.

Advantages:

• high quality product;
• effective detergent;
• one "portion" withstands up to 10 thousand kilometers of run;
• users mark the quiet operation of the engine after the start of oil use.

Disadvantages:

• not detected.

Everyone caring about own car, tries to choose only high-quality for him consumables: The best engine oil, clean fuel and so on. And if the engine condition depends on the characteristic features of the fuel, the choice of lubrication has a direct effect on all mechanical parts of the machine.

Every year a list appears on the network. motor oils"But their components of their experts are often focused exclusively on professional products, lowering one of the most important properties for the consumer - the cost. We took over the courage to make your own rating of lubricants based on the combination of price, quality and accessibility for the ordinary driver.

Machine oil on the package has the corresponding class and characteristics of the markings based on which it is easy to choose the best product for its own use:

• The first number denotes pumpability in the corresponding range of functional temperature - the time for which the oil will fall into the system after starting the engine. What it is closer to the noise, the lower the work temperature.
• The letter designation W - determines the lubricant as winter.
• The second number is viscosity. The higher the figure, the stronger the thickness when the motor is heated.

Understanding the marking will allow you to choose a suitable lubricant even without specification.

What motor oil is better: synthetics or semi-synthetic?

Considering products from the point of view of functionality, we see that synthetic oil wins in all indicators. It successfully resists low temperatures, not subject to oxidation, shows outstanding anti-corrosion properties and requires a rarely topping in the motor. However, its high cost may be a serious obstacle, especially for owners of inexpensive cars up to 400 thousand rubles.

The semi-synthetic oil is developed on the basis of mineral with the addition of artificial lubrication. The percentage difference varies depending on the manufacturer, but on average is 40-60%. Qualitatively semi-synthetic is somewhat worse, but in some cases it turns out to be a preferred option for use.

Choosing the best synthetic or semi-synthetic engine oil, you should focus on its cost, operating conditions and the "age" of the unit. For a relatively old motor, it is rational to use semi-synthetic, in new - synthetic oil.

What motor oils are the best for difficult conditions?

Choosing what engine oil is better to purchase for winter, especially for SUVs for hunting and fishing, in the extreme northern regions of our country, you should pay attention to the designation of 0W30. It indicates that we have an all-season product providing high-quality lubrication in the range from -40 ° C to +30 ° C. Best brands Motor oils of this category in 2018-2019 are as follows:

• Motul 8100 Eco-Clean - motor greasewhich demonstrates excellent functional properties by working with diesel and gasoline units recent generations, lowers fuel consumption.
