Excellent Oil
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I done a second oil change on a 2016 RAV 4 that is a high mileage one I been using nothing but Valvoline oil a full synthetic. This is the second time I put in the Restore & Protect . I’m very impressed on how well it works & performs . So far so good no issues whatsoever. I would recommend using a good quality filter . I use a Doct,s filter . I have took notice on how the engine runs! This oil is a excellent choice for especially if you have a high mileage vehicle. This the oil I’m sticking with .

Quality product-worth the extra cost
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an older vehicle that is 15 years old and has 151500 miles on it. I use this Valvoline Restore & Protect Full Synthetic Motor Oil 5W-20 5 quart size for my oil change. It is an investment that has kept my car running well. My car also does not burn oil like some. I like to keep this on hand in case I need to add oil in between Valvoline oil changes. I prefer Synthetic over regular oil as it lasts longer between oil changes and the added cost is worth it.

For those than want more than the first 100,000
Great Product have been using on my 2018 Ford F-150 5.0 which started using a little oil at 218,000 miles. Switched to this and now have 253,000 and no more oil consumption. Very happy.

Understanding oil
Keeping the build up from combustion from sticking to internal engine parts is critical this is the only solution that’s makes since. Even changing the oil more does not solve what this oil can do.good job valvoline I have always liked you life long tech.

I beleive its working!
I started using RESTORE^&PROTECT awhile back.initiallydrove 2500 miles and replaced the oil filter.drove another 2500 to meet my 5000 .Ile interval.i continued to use the oil till my next oil change.i have to drive up a 5 degree road for about 4 miles.before the P&R, I would have to down shift back to 4th gear to maintain my speed.towards the end of my second interval I could maintain the the same grade in 5th.!I think I had stuck rings,which got loosened up and helped "restore"some compression that helped me .ake it up the grade.i also noticed that the dipstick is as clean as a brand new one?

Restore & protect works
I started to use at 254000 miles. I am at 268000 now and the difference is astounding. Just looking at the valvetrain, I can see the huge difference. Even on the dipstick.

What about us 1% who drives Easy?
Well I’m one of those who drives a stock Ford F150, takes very good care of my vehicle and drives easy. I diligently do all the required maintenance on schedule with OEM Products, run Chevron reg 87 w/Techron…and my F150 operates perfect. So why change anything? “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!” At first I too was skeptical about Valvoline Restore and Protect after reading reviews and watching videos on what this oil can do. Actually sounded too good to be true. I worked at a Science & Engineering Lab for 37-years, now 11 years in retirement, and if there is anything I’ve learned; technology does get better. My F150 is a 2007 4.2L v6, with a manual 5sp, and thought what the heck, why not give Valvoline R&P 5w-20 a try in my next oil change. I treated it like owning a new vehicle, gently breaking in the oil the first 500 miles, flushing out sludge and varnish that may have accumulated in 18-years if any. After 466 miles, to my surprise, the engine which already ran smooth, now purrs like a kitten…even smoother. With a clean dipstick I suspect there’s no clogging in the oil filter, but plan to keep an eye on it, hopefully to reach 3k miles without any issues. The engine is so quiet, gearshift knob barely vibrates, and I gained 2-miles per gallon. I plan to continue to use Valvoline R&P throughout the rest of the truck’’s life. -Thomas

Improved performance, highly recommend
Improved performance for my Audi S5 with spirited driving, engine runs smoother and improved acceleration and responsiveness after just one oil change. Highly recommend. Valvoline, please release a 5w40 formulation for my other car!

Does job
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently gave Valvoline Restore & Protect a try during my last oil change, and honestly, I’m impressed. My car’s got a bit of mileage on it (just over 100k), and I was starting to notice it wasn’t running quite as smooth as it used to. After switching to this oil, the engine feels quieter and more responsive—like it got a little refresh. What sold me was the whole "restore & protect" angle. I’m not a mechanic, but I like knowing this stuff is designed to help clean things up internally while giving solid protection. Plus, it's full synthetic, so you’re getting that top-tier performance without having to splurge on boutique brands. No complaints so far—engine’s running great, no weird noises, and I’ll definitely be sticking with it for future oil changes. If your ride’s getting up there in age, this is worth checking out. Packaging was great.

Even impressed the FIL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wish I took a picture but this has been used already! My husbands father does my oil change and he even made a remark about the new brand I’m using ! He says this one performs better and has better value as to what I was buying, very happy and my car hasn’t had any skips !

High hours, cleaning up the engine!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been running Restore and Protect in my 2014 Tahoe SSV, with 12,500 hours on the motor, and 170k on the odo, with great success. Switched from a competitor high milage oil, and noticed improved oil pressure, less harshness, and improved smoothness. I'm on my 4th change. The long running hours left the inside of the engine pretty golden. That's clearing up with every change.

Worked for me!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product worked great. The packaging was great and sustained the trial of changing my oil. I am not a car expert, but I had no problems using this product.
