    Post your latest oil change

    2024 Tundra: Out- Dealer 0w20 In- VRP 5w30 Did not change the filter as the dealer had just changed the oil. I double checked, there is a "Mighty" branded oil filter on there so I know they did it! But wanted to get the 0W20 out of there. 21,229 miles.

    Wish me luck. 2014 navigator oil change

    Yes you very well might be able to slide under without lifting. I don't remember these being too difficult, I have serviced my nieces 2007 F-150 many times. Biggest recommendations are be safe and double check your work. And of course check for leaks after it's running 👍

    Toyota Oil Filters

    Hi all, Have 2 Toyotas in the fleet currently. Was looking into the Toyo Filter and overall consenus is positive. I'm aware that they have a higher flow rating but lower filtering efficiency. I'm not usually too particular with filters but this got me curious. For a Toyota, is flow more...

    Those are some truly good results, like you said the injectors had a huge improvement. Confirmation of why SI-1 is still my go to, thanks for sharing. I've had some success getting vehicles to run better doing back to back treatments as well.

    Insight needed, 2012 Ram 5.7L Hemi #8 misfire diagnostics

    Has cylinder 8 misfire been the issue on all three of the engines? These can sometimes be the rocker/lifter but I would be quite surprised if it was on all 3 engines (unless mfg issue). Is the motor running? Curious how it sounds/runs.

    Progressive car insurance, found a way to lower rates

    Unfortunately the nature of the beast! I had been with State Farm for 2 years but rates kept creeping up on us. Recently purchased a vehicle and they partner with an insurance broker. I wasn't too confident that it would be fruitful, but we switched and ended up saving us $109/month! I have no...

    F-150 payload and towing; within limits?

    Experienced the same thing on my old Ram with the 3.6. I think the worst ever was my old 2.3 ranger. I put a very small trailer and I mean very small, almost shocked me how doggy it was. You're right though, The 3.7 is a solid motor 👍

    Very helpful, thank you. On Amazon, I can get a case of 12 Pentius XL's for 59.95. I am good with that!

    Carquest Premium 85372 C&P

    Looks good, thank you! Are the Pentius XL filters essentially the same filter? Thinking about these or the PG's for all of vehicles.
