    Best Oil
    By  RJ,  a  Verified Buyer  from  VA  on  November 08, 2024
    Excellent oil with great results. My truck runs smooth and no real engine heat issues during the summer. The Ford F150 with Turbo has the tendency to run hot. Truly, I believe this oil saved me from the dreaded oil leaks the F150's seem to get around 40 to 60K miles. Dumped all the manfactures fluilds and replaced all with the AMS OIL products.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Excellent motor oil
    By  JOSEPH,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Westchester County NY  on  November 07, 2024
    Unlike many "synthetic" oils on the market , Amsoil Signature Series is 100% synthetic, and is very high quality. My engine stays cleaner and runs smoother , and I'm getting good gas mileage and performance as well. Much higher quality than the oil that Lexus/Toyota uses in their vehicles. I'd recommend Amsoil Signature Series oil to anyone who is serious about performance and maintaining their vehicle in perfect condition. It's so good that I got my family members to switch to Amsoil , and they notice the difference as well.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Used on all 3 of my wife’s current/previous cars. All have been Ecoboosts that she would put on average 25k/year on in South MS heat. Last two cars made it 100-150k without any issues and always a clean engine and valvetrain with this oil at every 5k interval. Current 2023 2.0 bronco sport has 38k, quite valvetrain and smooth running as always.
