Am i 100% safe mixing these two in my high mileage 2011 RX 350? Apparently both made by Valvoline but maybe some slight differences. If I decide to return 1 so they match is there any quality difference? The Napa brand is about $5 cheaper. Thx

No snow for me lol. Ordered yesterday we’ll see how it goes . . .

Bought a 2011 RX 350 recently. Paint is really not that bad and overall the car presents well. Has pretty grim looking paint protection film on the hood and it is sort of a sore thumb. The car is high mileage so I could live with the ugly hood, but if it's not too much of a pain I'd take a go...

Putting tires on my 2011 175K mile RX 350. They're the cheapest costco has but reviews seem ok online

Lexus GS's were great cars they survived all the way to 2020. Not the sportiest though. BMW made tons of cars fitting this description.

I'm working on it! 10K a year or so. Previous owners not so much though it only had 13K on it when I bought it last year.

Negative.

Yeah I’m mildly bummed because mine has no VCM and no DI but still burns. Oh well makes for a fun experiment.

2014 V6 Accord with a manual transmission. Only 28,000 miles on the odometer. Currently running Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W30. Currently 3650 miles since my last oil change, and I've lost about 0.75 quarts of oil. This seems excessive to me considering the low mileage and age of the car, am I...

2011 Lexus RX 350 175,550 on engine Just under 5000 this OCI Out: unknown 0w20 from Lexus dealer In: Pennzoil PP High Mileage 5w30 Fram Tough guard 9972 filter Just bought car a couple weeks ago. Got a pretty good deal ($5500), hoping that buying at such a high mileage doesn’t haunt me. Will...

So you don't subscribe to the "Use only DW-1 fluid in Honda transmissions" dogma? I used Maxlife in a Camry with nice results but I chickened out with a CRV and paid a fair amount more to get the DW-1.

Hmm that is intereting. Looking forward to see what happens in my next OCI. I'm a couple months out.

Yeah the car is fun. I have a safe uphill straightaway on my home from work that is just asking for a quick 6K RPM+ run through the gears and I do it pretty often (4-5 times a month) Maybe that's why I'm burning through the oil?

I have enough PUP left for another change. I think I'll use it again and track the color/burning and see if it changes one way or the other. If it doesn't get better then maybe switch to Restore and Protect or an M1 high mileage oil after that to see if it helps.

My car is a 2014 Accord V6 with a manual transmission. Mileage sits at 27,000. I've had it since it had 13.5K about 16 months ago. My 1st two oil changes I used Kirkland 0W20. After the 2nd Kirkland change I sent it to Blackstone for analysis and the results were very good, so not much to...

Bought two 5 gallon jugs of PP HM from the local Wally world. $27 per + TAX on sale ($3.00 above online pricing because I live in Hawaii - don't get me started) so with the Pennzoil rebate it's gonna end up around $18.50 per jug. Not too bad. Plan on putting this into my newly purchased 2011...

How’s that Venza treating you? Test drove one kinda liked it. Is yours the 2.7 or the 3.5?

$11.50 per jug after rebate that’s bonkers. My WM doesn’t have PUP so I got my 10 quarts for around $38 not bad.

Liquid8r towel from rag company is my all time fave

Surprised how many on here don't like the CRV. I see so many of them and I know people who really liked theirs. I do think after the 4th generation the powertrains got more complicated (turbos and CVT''s) so the older ones are probably a bit more stout.
