    2006 Acura RL oil recommendation

    If 0W-oil gives you peace of mind for cold starts, or you think your son will get slightly better fuel economy, then use it. Even in snow climates, plenty of cars are running 5W-whatever. However, either would be fine. Any modern car using 5W-20 can run 0W-20. Both are 20 weight when vehicle...

    2017 Ford Escape Transmission Service question - drain/fill or full swap?

    That was the factory fill. Black like tar. I did the triple drain & fill. No reason not to. I can understand if there's no drain plug. Then you are not dropping the pan 3 times. I can't wait to see what it looks like at 50,000 miles.

    Amsoil the best but Pennzoil for the win?

    Did this video influence anyone to switch brands? The guy in the video says that Walmart & Amazon oil are what he uses, and it's ranked (by him) next to the Mobil 1.

    2017 Ford Escape Transmission Service question - drain/fill or full swap?

    In real world conditions, 150,000 miles may be too high. Whereas what a service writer recommends, 30,000 miles, may be a bit low. Some will recall that Mercon V & Mercon LV are also suppose to be "lifetime fluid". Or so they advertise that; and still recommend service intervals. Although...

    2017 Ford Escape Transmission Service question - drain/fill or full swap?

    At the dealership today. Service advisor said that 6F35 transmission should be serviced every 30,000 miles. Complete fluid exchange with the machine or triple drain and fill. But not just a drain and fill. He said that it makes no sense to change less than half of any fluid. Would you drain...
