I agree rinseless wash and BRB work well. I've used ONR and Ech20 and like both. ONR is my go-to. Such a versatile product. I use it on interiors/glass as well. For touchless, the Bilt Hamber is impressive. It's the only one I've seen that actually will clean well without touching the surface.

I've always wondered about how VII and fuel don't seem to work well together. Gokhan talked about it in the past. I think that's one reason why Mobil 1 0w30 AFE loses substantial viscosity when there is fuel dilution. There was a recent UOA where it lost 36% of its viscosity in 3k miles.

I've been satisfied with Optimum Protectant Plus lately. I use ONR to clean. https://www.detailedimage.com/Optimum-OPT-M36/Protectant-Plus-P281/17-oz-S1/

The only touchless product that works is Bilt Hamber Touchless, but even then, you still need to do a contact wash. https://clean-garage.com/bilt-hamber-touch-less-5-liter-snow-foam-pre-wash-touch-less-169oz/

Reliability would be one of my concerns with the VW/Hyundai so I'd likely go with the WRX then Honda. I'd like to see how the CVT WRX performs. I've driven manuals for 20 years and not really into it anymore.

Yeah it's something we will never know.

I feel the same. Based on the msds of June 2022, it does appear EP 0w20 contains a bit more Group III than IV in its formulation, or at the very least some amount of III.

It was tough for me to understand. So fascinating though.

Hoping @OVERKILL can chime in. :)

Here's one that will blow your mind.

303 is decent. I've been using ONR and Optimum Protectant Plus which I like better than 303.

UV protection claims in any of these products is questionable.

Saw this pic on a History Pics site. Can't vouch for the accuracy but I've seen these before.

With an oil like M1 EP, my guess would be that it would be fine.

All the time is in the prep. Good work. (y)

Yes because a UOA only measures a very limited particle size (5 to 8 microns).

I asked them that a while back. Some type of corrosion but could be inconsequential. It's been discussed a lot on here. Tbn drops off quickly too. I still think it's more of a racing/track oil than daily driver. Oddly enough it does really well in certain motors where Tbn does not drop and...
