Is your car or truck burning oil for no reason after checking for leaks? In our personal experience, we had a few vehicles that were inspected and nothing wrong could be found except that the engine would burn up a quart of oil a month. We switched from a regular brand to our high-quality synthetic and the oil consumption stopped. This is how we know Amsoil is high-quality oil. The brand we used before switching was a very famous synthetic that claimed they were better but that is not the case. Have a vehicle that is consuming oil for no reason? Try our Signature Series oil and pair it with an Amsoil filter. You will see that the oil burning should be reduced after switching to our oil. It is a good idea to always check your oil level regardless of which oil you use since a leak can happen at any time.

If you're looking for another year, make or model instead of this 1980 Volkswagen RABBIT motor oil, try one of these similar models below. We try to keep one page for each model vehicle.

Amsoil synthetic motor oil protects your car engine because it doesn't break down or lose it's viscosity under extreme temperatures and stress. Regular conventional oil breaks down under high temperatures which leaves harmful carbon and sludge deposits which will make your engine wear faster. This is why you have to change your motor oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles or so at your local dealer or quick lube business which costs you more money over the long term!

Research shows that synthetic oil is superior to conventional motor oil!
