    Front struts 03' civic

    i just bought struts for my 04 civic at rockauto.com. I am very satisfied with their prices and quick shipping. Same exact thing as napa has. Napa struts for our car are Monroe parts, they have the same part number.

    If prices get really bad, I might car pool. Car pooling sucks.

    MPG loss in heavier oil - this much?

    Last I heard, you're supposed to leave the factory fill in for the first normal oci, or did automakers do away with the break in lube and stuff?

    small Pureone oil filter question

    I did a little more research... It seems the poster that claimed that the PL14459 had more media than the PL14610 flip flopped 3 months later and said the opposite. ??

    I can't speak from experience, but according to more than one post on this forum, the 14459 has a better efficiency rating and more media than the 14610...

    small Pureone oil filter question

    I wondered if the 14459 would fit.. I'll have to get a couple. I already have 10 14610's, but I plan to keep this car for another 100k+

    small Pureone oil filter question

    My civic takes a PL14610, one of the smaller pureone oil filters. Has anyone has used this part number for 10k miles without failure? I was thinking about re-using my filter during my 4-5k summer changes. Thanks.

    frankenstein oil mixture how long would you run it

    Hypothetically, let's say you have a quart each of these 5w-20 oils: Mobil 1, Valvoline Synpower, Quaker State Conventional, and Napa Synthetic and put them into your Honda Civic for an oil change... How long would you run this mixture for? Just curious.. :-)
