Did an oil change on my Mazda before our trip to Colorado. Everything looked good except the said potassium was really high. Oil before this was super tech 0w20. Always been on 5K oil changes

Discount tire last week swapped them out for a set of General G-Max AS 05's. Vibration is gone and road force was all below 18. So I'm happy and pleased. Haven't gotten to try them out in the rain yet but very good tire.

I run 5K oil change intervals on the Mazda6 with full synthetic 0w20. The focus got 6K on last oil change with motorcraft syn blend and does 500+ miles a week for work. Oil still had a little bit of red tint to oil and still looked clean. Has ST 0w20 and a motorcraft filter in it now. Will prob...

So about 4,200 miles ago I replaced my crappy worn down to 2-3/32 falken factory tires at 22K. Put a set of dws06 on the Mazda with 22K on it and did a full syn oil change. About 200 miles into the tires I fell asleep behind the wheel and hit a median otw home and did about $5,600 in damages. 2...

Boyfriends oil change is due and I need to grab the oil while I'm at the store tonight. Last time I think I used a Fram orange filter and Super tech 0W 20. I know we're getting into the warmer months and he idles a lot and remote starts a lot even in the summer and was thinking I should probably...
