    Euro HPL 5W30 or 5W40 for an LCI G30?

    Either will work well but I like a 40wt for this application. Tough one for my mind is the OCI. I wouldn't be running 10k despite the ability of HPL. What OCI? A lot would depend upon the driving habits for my comfort level.

    Engine Oil Help! 2014 BMW x3 xdrive 28i f25 (n20)

    Basic search provides the info on the extended warranty. I'm past it and OP would be as well. Key is whether it was corrected or if he has original equipment.

    Engine Oil Help! 2014 BMW x3 xdrive 28i f25 (n20)

    Absolutely!! Planning on it at 100k. I really like the ZF trans but not so much the forced high rpm even downhill at low speed when warming up.

    Engine Oil Help! 2014 BMW x3 xdrive 28i f25 (n20)

    I have the same vehicle I recently bought, which had 74k in January. I am running Mobil 1 0-40 with 6k OCI. I'm at 79k, and the next OCI is coming up. I'm sure you've noticed the N20 runs a bit warm. I would use a good 30wt but prefer the 40 for this engine. My understanding of the N20 issue...

    Seperate Clean , Lube & Protection Products Users ?

    I've been using Breakfree CLP for decades for the majority of firearm needs. I use WIpeOut for decoppering and that deep clean you need evey once in a while. Recently was loosing accuracy in a 30-06 AI bolt gun. It was around the 800 round mark. Serious cleaning and decoppering and she is...

    Pennzoil Ultra back at Walmart and yes, Purolator 20k Gold is replacing the Endurance.

    My Wally has had the Ultra for a while. Since the rebates are out of the Plat in 5-30 has been scarce! We still have the Endurance but they are on clearance. The 20k Purolators haven't appeared just yet.

    guys over 50 doing maintenance

    Mid 50's and still enjoy the maintenance items I can do on our 4 vehicles. For me, I am incredibly grateful I can continue to do oil changes as I don't trust others doing them and I love how quick it is for me.

    Is there any real difference in diff/transfer case oil qualities?

    I have stuck to Amsoil and Valvoline and both have performed well in about 6 vehicles. I'm about to do my kids 17 Outback again when it hits 200k.

    Dominican Republic nightclub roof collapse. At least 124 dead.

    You wonder? I mean no disrecpest but don't think for a second these countries actually monitor and DR is historically on the take in ways you may not fathom. I say this as I've traveled a few times in the back country of the DR with my BIL. Try driving there. Very few have any insurance...

    RockAuto Parts Lately...

    It is not a fun endeavor. In January I rolled the dice with a 2014 BMW X3 and part of my routine at 74k was changing plugs. I ordered the NGK OEM plugs from Amazon and admit I like the sticker over the seal and signature noting verified .... not that a fake couldn't do the same. 5K in and no...

    New to me Savage 111 in .270 WIN. Thoughts on ammo and glass

    I don't do much here for firearms so please don't hesitate to PM. I load for about 16 rifle cartridges. For 270 single stage is the way to go but make no mistake, you have a great progressive press. Powders for 270are ok for a progressive. Mind you, I am a NUT for MOA or less in a rifle so I...

    New to me Savage 111 in .270 WIN. Thoughts on ammo and glass

    You mentioned used. Before you fir a single shot I would decopper the barrel as you do not know about the rounds previously sent down the tube. I like WipeOut for this. The 270's I've owned in my life have shot the 130 and 140 weights well. If you load your own PM and I'll send you a load...

    New CVT oil ??

    I used Amsoil successfully with a not so good 08 Maxima. I have a 17 3.6 I'vechanged out fluid on 3x in 192k that requires the high torque fluid and a 19 2.5 that does not. I'm not one to shy from a fluid that meets spec but I would not use anything for the Subaru's but OEM on this one.

    Fram Ultra Problems?

    IDK but I haven't had any of the issues reported here. I just cut open two 7317 (7500/8k run Pennz Ultra Euro 5-30 in a 19 Outback 2.5) and a 9688 17 Outback 3.6 7500k run Mobil 5-30 with 192k on the engine). Maybe it's specific to certain filters? I have noticed a few pleats not in perfect...
