I HATED stocking this crap when I worked at dealer. They carried everything they sold, and the prices were insane. They would use their line of fluids too which was stupid because we had genuine stuff as well. We had techs that refused to use the BG machine for transmission flushes as well...

More likely than not the top one will also be the current version; they are just using an older photo. Unless someone has a pallet of SM rated M1 and thinks it's more 3x more desirable?

Considering how often manufacture / API / ACEA standards change you are never getting the same exact stuff in the bottle for that long. Look at M1 changing up AFEs base oil composition lately.

What warehouse was SN rated AFE stuck in for the last 3 years?

Google 'Cruze cracked piston'. It's more preventative than anything. I've only had one "event" I could detect when I first got the car merging. I heard a fairly loud crackle and an immediate loss of power. I've moved to 93 octane fuel and tuned since then and haven't had one since. When I got...

I'm in the $2500 club, maybe 3k so you can meet in the middle at $2750.

After doing a bunch more research I think my next OCI I'm going to try Ravenol DXG.

I can't deal. Hahaha.

I ordered one of the resistive style testers today.

I changed out my HB3/9005 bulbs for Philips HIR1 bulbs. Trimmed one tab and installed without a problem. Cheaper than dodgy LEDs and keeps the correct optics. Besides the one tab the connector is identical, the bulbs even have a mark to show where to trim. I'm not sure if that is for us or they...

Can parts stores even accurately test batteries? My battery is a bit of a bear to remove.

My Cruze calls for a 94R/H7 and is one monster battery. I assume because the car has start / stop, but I have it disabled in my tune. It lives in the bottom of the hatch so less exposure to heat in the engine bay. Going to monitor it, but it seems really strong still. I did short trip the car...

I just went through something similar. My 02 sensor decided to go belly up and set my trims to some crazy percentage (60%), had my blowing raw fuel out the exhaust. Limped it home, replaced the 02 and realized my oil was probably full of fuel. I should unplugged the sensor and let it default...

My bad, I'm sorry about that! I wish old posts would archive on here after a year or two.
