    Recommended oil change interval for rarely driven Honda S2000?

    I do the same or slightly less miles on my Ferrari (1,000 to 2,000 per year). I change it every other year. Don't ignore the other fluids if you are trying to be proactive. In fact I have every fluid changed at the two year point. Power steering, coolant, brake fluid, transaxle, F1 fluid. Been...

    Charging battery with battery charger?

    I would simply get a more modern charger, there are many discussions and threads on the subject.

    Charging battery with battery charger?

    That is an old, manual charger. You need to monitor with that type. Don't just leave it unattended for long periods or you could overcharge.

    Who makes BMW's "store brand" oil?

    To support the domestic car market in Japan, they have had a law for decades that requires a deep inspection at year three, then every two years after that. Anything out of compliance must be replaced. Cracked windshield, cracked headlight, frayed seatbelt, tires too old, ...Must be replaced...

    Who makes BMW's "store brand" oil?

    Google earth shows that yes, there are a dozen cars outside in the parking area so there must be production continuing there. I'll try to snap a couple pictures next time I am down that way...during business hours. (just drove by there (a couple blocks to the west) this evening (Sunday))

    3 Pack of Pennzoil Synthetic Euro L 5W-30 5qt. for $43.29 ($2.89/qt) @ Amz

    It is likely to come back. It was offered in Dec and Feb. Someone posted early in this thread that it comes back every few months for a couple years now. Just keep an eye here or put in an alert on your Amazon account to message you if it comes back.

    3 Pack of Pennzoil Synthetic Euro L 5W-30 5qt. for $43.29 ($2.89/qt) @ Amz

    Seems like ordering this is such a crap shoot. Orders massively delayed, wrong product, damaged....I think if they offer this again, I should order at least four or five cases to account for all the mishaps. If I get lucky and get them all, then bonus. :) I ordered two in December and one in...

    Battery for 2021 Rav4 non hybrid with auto start stop

    Yes, per the recommendation of Interstate, over their charging concerns. I would be curious what Toyota says. But the other battery sellers and manufacturers do not seem to have the same concerns and claim an AGM is an acceptable upgrade over EFB. The charging profile concern is often times...

    Battery for 2021 Rav4 non hybrid with auto start stop

    Interesting recommendation. A number of websites claim an AGM is an "upgrade" over an EFB and entirely appropriate if additional power and life is needed. https://www.rbbattery.com/efb-vs-agm-batteries-whats-the-difference/#:~:text=If%20you%27ve%20got%20an,better%20suited%20to%20your%20needs...

    3 Pack of Pennzoil Synthetic Euro L 5W-30 5qt. for $43.29 ($2.89/qt) @ Amz

    My Feb 1, 2024 order has now been updated a few minutes ago to "shipped" and scheduled to arrive Thursday, April 11th. Since my last order was screwed up and I received 0w-20 Pennzoil Platinum, I have my fingers crossed this one is correct.
