Moly and boron are the primary additives. Basically limited or no metallic additives. It's kind of a deal of going with something that has years of data or stick with one with basically no long term data.

Yes. I'm primarily just wondering if continuing to use a oil thats primarily emissions based is the best thing or not. Really not enough data on it to say long term since there are only a few UOAs out there.

I think SDe is being phased out on their new no more conventional push. Can't remember what the replacement blend name is. Emissions aren't an issue anymore. Priority would be engine life. Here's the article about Chevrons conventional phaseout and replacement...

No noticeable oil consumption currently. Pcv run to atmosphere also.

It's not short tripped at all and is similarly biased. Just wondering if it's worth changing based on the unique additive package it has to a conventional one.

19 Duramax and currently running Chevron Delo 600 ADF. If you no longer had concerns over dpf longevity or other such factors would you keep using the 600 or switch to a more conventional additive package oil? I think I have enough for 2 or 3 more oil changes though. If I changed maybe Kendall...

Mobil 1 Ow40 for 10 years in my 2010 5.7 Tundra.

I put Kyb quick struts on the Prius along with their rear shocks and springs with no issues. Rides like new again. We'll see how they do over the long term.

It literally says in the manual a higher viscosity may be more suitable in certain conditions. Other than that I'd use what you have since your set on 0w16.

Awesome car. Thanks for the pics.

Appreciate the info.

I installed one on the Prius, center brace. It's not really a precision driving machine. Can't say it did or didnt make a difference.

Our UPS center purchased two trucks for downtown deliveries and they were broken within months. They sat in the back for the next two years. Unsure what happened to them in the end.

Seems like they should have seen that coming. Extra load equal massive reduction in usability. https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/new-york-abandons-electric-snow-plows/ar-AA1jyazz

I'm interested in how the Esp holds up now. I think the other gentleman here used Oil Analyzers and was 8.3cSt at 1282 miles so Blackstones doesn't look out of the realm of possibility. Not sure though .Appreciate the insight.

That's what I'm thinking.

No. Zero short trips. This was never a 30w to begin with.

635 miles on the factory fill. Supposed to be a 0w30 for the turbo 2.5 as recommended by Hyundai. Doesn't look like it. Another poster found viscosity of 8.3 at 1200 miles on his factory fill same engine. Refilled with Mobil 1 Esp 0w30.

Just to add my 23 Hyundai SantaFe 2.5T factory fill came back at 9.0cSt at 635 miles. Don't think they are using 30w to begin with.

I use the Fumoto on the dually since the oil pan was damaged from overtightening at the factory and would not seal with a metal washer . It's slow but works fine and is protected by the cross member.
