    Best wax for vehicle stored outside in FL

    Does it have to be a wax, or will a synthetic sealer do? If so, I like Duragloss TPP 105, and like the Duragloss 601 and 105 combo

    Mobil 1 Synthetic noisier than other brands

    Same thing happened with my Subaru. I have no doubt that M1 was protecting the engine just fine, but it was noisier than any other oil I used. Regardless, I wouldn't hesitate to use it if I was getting it at a good price.

    T.V. soundbar

    I've been thinking about getting a sound bar, but had a question. Do I have to raise the volume with the sound bar remote, or will the TV remote still raise the volume on the sound bar? If the TV remote will still work for it, then I might get a couple for various TVs around the house. But if I...

    I'm looking for a treatment for door gaskets

    I use the 303 protectant stuff. Don't remember the details as to why, but when I did my research the last time I determined that was the stuff to use, so that's what I use.

    Best High Mileage Synthetic

    There is no best, but I like Valvoline MaxLife. Simply put, my engine was smoother with it than other oils.

    Subaru 2.5L Iridium spark plug life only 60K?

    4 cylinder non-turbo Subaru's are easy to change the spark plugs on. Check out guides on youtube and they'll show you exactly what needs to be done. Also, get this: https://www.amazon.com/GearWrench-80546-8-Inch-6-Inch-Swivel/dp/B0014ZVSVK I got mine from the local AdvanceAuto for less than the...

    how about a ford fusion ?

    Don't know if it's already been mentioned, but there's some type of recall for the Ford Focus transmission. Don't remember the details, but my coworker has one (2015 model?) and the dealer said their some type of recall to resolve some issue with the transmission. I wasn't paying too much...

    Penzoil Platinum HM or Valvoline Max-Life HM?

    Never tried Pennzoil HM, but my engine never ran smoother than when I was running MaxLife HM in it. When I use up my current stash of Kendall synthetic, I'll probably just start picking up MaxLife FS whenever there's a sale or rebate going on.

    Car buying through Costco?

    I know people who've used it, but have never used it myself. The people I know who have used it said it's a good price, but not the best price. Some of them basically used the Costco price as a price point to start negotiating further from.

    Oil for new truck (17' Tacmoa) UPDATE

    Check if there's a rebate on the Castrol or M1 website, then get either the Castrol or M1 EP oil you listed based on that. You will never have an oil related issue using any of the oils you listed, and using the rebates you can probably get the synthetic for less than the cost of the...

    M1 EP vs PP PurePlus - NOACK %

    Probably not what you want to hear, but I'd use the M1 EP for another oil change. Reason being that the first time I switched to M1 in my car, I experienced oil consumption even though there was no prior consumption. Other people have experienced the same thing when making the switch, and most...
