    Time to switch from Valvoline Restore and Protect back to high mileage oil?

    I ran Valvoline Restore and Protect in my 2012 Liberty with the 3.7 liter V6 for 5 5K OCI's. After about 25,000 miles on Valvoline Restore and Protect 5W-20, the engine was clean and showing excellent oil analysis results. I switched to Valvoline Extended Protection MaxLife High Mileage 5W-30 to...

    Stash of oil kept in non-climate controlled garage in Phoenix. Issues?

    😱That’s how my next 5qt container is currently being stored here in Central Florida. Sitting for about 5 months already, about 3-4 more till it’s used.

    Fram filter missing gasket

    That’s very kind of you. 🙏 I wound up returning it. With a day to spare mind you.

    Struggle to commit to a 10,000Km oil change interval

    I’m running a 2012 Jeep Liberty with a 3.7L Powertec V6. When I first bought it I just changed the oil when the computer told me to, usually 8K miles at the most convenient quickie lube joint.

    I might go back to Walmart and do the same.

    Fram filter missing gasket

    I didn’t know that. I two Ultra Synthetics on the shelf to use on my Jeep. It was very well regarded by some friends.

    Fram filter missing gasket

    2016 Mazda CX-5 2.5L Skyactive I’m sure I made the right decision. I opened the box on this Fram Synthetic Endurance and lo and behold, no gasket. I had already drained the oil, so I ran to O’Reilly and picked up a micro guard mid oil change. I’m just asking because this is a new filter...

    2012 Jeep Liberty 3.7L Powertec

    I'm not letting it decide my oil use, but I am allowing it to present technical information to me in a manner that is easier to digest and thus make an educated decision.

    2012 Jeep Liberty 3.7L Powertec

    It's been a minute since I posted on this forum. I'm more of a stalker. Since my last post, my Jeep has acquired 23K miles all on Valvoline Restore and Protect. On the next oil change I'm switching to Valvoline Extended Protection Maxlife High Mileage 5w30. Over the past 14 months, I've been...

    Car Care Nut new video - Opinion on Thicker Oil Debate

    Similar to the Motor Oil Geek, he gives a lot of information but never tells you what to do. He keeps it vague to avoid any litigation.

    Why not Valvoline Restore and Protect for average Joe OCIs?

    I've been using Valvoline Restore and Protect for the past 5 5K OCI's. I have no intention of switching. At 163.5K I want to keep the internals as clean as possible.
