It’s been out for a short (relatively) time, but from what I understand, it’s a “toned down” version of the Valvoline Blue Restore specifically made for Cummins engines. From what I’ve heard, it can work almost too well, and would clog some filters within a few hundred miles-I suppose if the engines were really bad to begin with. Other options would be BG engine treatment, I’ve seen that literally melt away sludge and clean out deposits. Also, Amsoil Signature Series has exceptional add pack that cleans very well. It’s also offered in a wide range of SAE’s. Maybe try the Valvoline Restore, since you’ve already ran it with diesel oil. Doing a UOA would be the only real way to see how your engine likes any particular oil/SAE.
5w30 will bee fine in a 5w40 application. 5w40 really isnt thiicker it is just rateed different due to add pack. 5winter/30 stands for can flow as good as a 5 weight old under extreme cold and as good as 30 weight in extreme high temps.
I appreciate the info but unlike many others in Hyundai Genesis Coupe Facebook pages many actually do not understand what each number means on the viscosity rating and how they coincide with ambient temperature and normal operating temperature of the engine I actually do understand what each number means. The Valvoline restoring protect is new oil technology and when the Hyundai Genesis coupes were being produced more than 10 years ago. That was old oil technology and whatever wizardry Valvoline is using in the restorer protect. I know it's got to be the best oil out there now, regardless of the viscosity. I'm sure there's a reason why there's no 40 or a 50 viscosity in the restor and protect line.
@ I am a 30 year professional tech and I am having very good lucky with this product. Solved many oil consumption issues on many vehicles by 3rd oil change. It is a good product.
Nice oil not a big fan of stp anything, I’m in Arizona also I use purolator boss oil filter and wix xp air filter that why I don’t go to auto zone all they sale is stp oil and air filters Nice video Good luck with those stp filters
Motor Oil Geek also mentioned that he started using Valvoline R&P 30wt for his Porsche instead of the Euro 40wt oils that Porsche says to use cause the euro 40wt thins out to 30wt in about 500 miles.
Then the 30wt will thin out to a 20wt withing 500 miles.. That's the reason Hyundai recommended a 40wt for the Gen Coupe for better protection of the engine and turbo. They had a lot of early failures do to the oil viscosity break down.
That's not why he uses the Valvoline restore and protect. The old formula of the M1 0w40 dops down to a 30 viscosity oil from multiple reasons. He uses the r&p because it is new technology oil and is better than all the others. There is a reason why Valvoline doesn't make a 40 or a 50 viscosity.
I agree but that is old oil technology and the Valvoline restore and protect is new technology oil which is formulated better than any of the other brands oil.
Valvoline Restore and Protect is available in 10W40... Just not offered in the US Market. It is apparently available in the Australia/New Zealand Market though... (Marketed as offering 99% Deposit Removal, Not sure if that is a Market Specific "Requirement" or because of the Oil Spec... API SP, SN, SN Plus but not GF-6A (does 10W40 even qualify for ILSAC?)
@jeffreycattelino3996 Suppose so. Though dropping Valvoline Global a message saying you'd like some 10W40 or whatever specific oil blend/spec(s) you'd like to test out... See what they say
Besides the Misfire/Rings/Compression issue... Are you noticing any Significant Oil Consumption? Think I saw you have a couple of Catch Cans on your Setup...
I'm sure it'll work great and I'm sure it will make the inside spotless as it once was when it was brand new. There's some wizardry going on with this oil definitely!

No I'm using the restoring protect just cuz I was using diesel oil. Doesn't mean I have to stick with the diesel version of this.

Nice video
Good luck with those stp filters
Okay cool
Good luck with those wix and Purolator filters.
Always !!!!
@BobbyRiley-ok6eo always !!!!

That's cool and everything but it's not available in the USA so it doesn't help me.

No oil consumption at all 5 quarts goes in 5 come out.
30$ walmart in Illinois
Yeah that's how much it is local to me at Walmart.
Just put some in my 1.4L turbo. See how it goes.
I'm sure it'll work great and I'm sure it will make the inside spotless as it once was when it was brand new. There's some wizardry going on with this oil definitely!
