    Dexos1 gen 2 in a 2026?

    It won’t blow up if you used a DEXOS “nothing” oil in it! Question answered. Lock the thread. Move on nothing to see.

    House passes bill to make Daylight Saving Time permanent

    I lived in W Virginia in 1963 when daylight savings time was yes or no county by county. Really messed up! You had to know what county your September high school away game was in to show up on time. I missed a movie or store visit because of a county line crossing in my summer there.

    Overfilled from the factory?

    My wife’s Subaru dealership always overfills on an oil change and other dealers do it too. I think it is some kind of “insurance” as many drivers don’t routinely check oil levels these days
