Interesting thread. I'll chime in as I (we) do have experience with this: - My Father had a 1972 Ford Pantera which he sold almost a decade ago. He had this while I was growing up so it had been in the family since the early 1980's. (I miss the car but it helped fund his retirement.) Since day...

I am approaching 58K miles with it so yes I'm almost at the 60K mark. The car is very nice. So far no issues. The CVT has held up very well. It was my only hesitation buying this car but so far so good!

I have a 2017 Maxima and I am on my last oil change before the warranty runs out. I have 10 bottles or so of Castrol GC 0-30 stockpiled from a recent sale. Since the GC oil is SL rated will it pose any issues if I use for my next oil change? My year Nissan specifies SN. I know older Nissan...

The same with Castrol Edge. (GC) We have one auto parts store chain here that carries it. I just dont understand why they dont market these top tier oils better. I am a simple person and I dont like to spend money but I also dont mind splurging on an oil change.

What really bothers me is that I cannot walk in and buy this Pennsoil "Ultra" labeled oil anywhere. I had to order it through Walmart (of all places) and wait a week for it to arrive. Nobody stocks it except online. Big marketing for such a top tier oil but its hard to get!!

New member.. First thread start. This weekend I changed the oil in my Sienna and I used Pennzoil Platinum Ultra. After I poured the entire 5 quart jug I noticed there seemed to be something that settled in the bottom of the bottle. Almost like fine sand or mud. I poured it on 9/13/15 and the...

Here's to owning the [censored] 4.7! I have a Jeep GC with the 4.7, actually this is my 2nd Jeep 4.7 and I have learned to live with this thing running rough. The only positive thing that has helped so far is to take off the throttle body and completely clean it off with carb cleaner or seafoam...
