Valvoline Restore & Protect Oil: cleans upto 100% Deposits to Factory Specs?

RCKYMTN M34OI · 11-30-2024, 04:46 PM

Been keeping my eye on feedback for the Valvoline R&P also. Put it in my wifes ecoboost and my E46 with 259,000 miles last oil change. The E46 runs very well already but I may have noticed a slight improvement, could've been placebo though.
Not sure if it'll be worth using in my M340 since it's low mileage but I may still use it to ensure it stays clean.
Seems interesting from all the R&D they've detaild.

I think the BMW specs oil does a good job as well keeping the engine clean, at least in my car. So I am only using the Valvoline R&P from mostly curiosity (couple of 3000 miles oil changes cannot hurt), and because I got 3ea 5qrt for about $80. I am still at 500 miles, will change/cut open filter at 1000 miles.
