Yup I'm in the most isolated place imaginable so I guess I'll be shipping it in. Hopefully I get lucky and no shipping damage/leaking.

That's the one thing. If I'm going to pay more than Kirkland I'd go for the PUP over the PP but is it true that walmart doesn't ever stock the PUP?

Depends on what you're looking for I suppose. I'm thinking of switching from 0w20 to 5w30 on my V6 Accord. I use Kirkland (a very thin 0w20) and I think I'll switch over to PP or PUP if I switch because they're much thinner than the Kirkland 5w30 (one of the thicker 5w30's). In my case I'm...

Not stuck. ST is cheap and has decent reputation. Ultra has more capacity and better rep so feel better about using it for a longer stretch. Both available at Walmart.

I'm no expert but prevailing wisdom is that if the filter is a pain/mess to deal with then filter every other OCI is going to be fine, especially with a better filter. My 2012 CRV filter is easy to switch out so I use a cheap supertech filter and change it every OCI. My 2014 Accord filter is...

Accountant? Or just a smart guy?

So I'm guessing the autos were the Caravan, Crosstrek and Rav 4? How'd you like your Saturn? I had a '94 SL manual everyone clowned it but I learned to love it.

I'm a Honda/Toyota guy but my girlfriend is about to buy an X5. Seems BMW is doing better with reliability these days and the B58 engine is smooth and very powerful in the cars so I'm sure it's good in the SUV's too.

1994 Saturn SL 2003 Accord Coupe Both 4 cylinder manual transmission. Saturn drove ****ty but was a trooper and went 190K miles with minimal issues. Accord was quite nice to drive - it got driven less so I sold it at 110K and 12 years old but it was basically flawless. Used cars ever since...

I resemble that remark. Although I got the manual transmission so no worries for me LOLOLOL. I don't like how Honda auto transmissions shift in the V6's. My dad's 2012 CRV shifts decently (K24).

I sometimes drive my V6 manual transmission Accord coupe like a horse's ass (it likes to rev!) so I'm considering switching to 5W30 even though mine has neither direct injection or VCM issues. Seems like Honda engines tolerate oil thicker than the 0W20 pretty well and a little extra protection...

Great engines IMO. Not sure if these have the GR FSE or GR FKS. I had a 2013 GS 350 with the FSE I loved that thing. I will say it was kind of ridiculously loud at startup otherwise it was smooth and powerful. Unstressed engine with large displacement and no turbo unlike so many cars now.

Wait are you recommending changing the filter every 4th oil change? I think 2 and done is good for me.

It's positioned where it's quite difficult to not make a mess under the car and even on the rim and tire.

See? Classic example. Who to believe?

It’s tricky because if you really want to do what’s best for your car, then you want a solid answer for what exactly is the right thing to do for your car. Apparently there isn’t a definitive correct answer. I have a V6 accord and a four-cylinder CRV, and even though they both ask for 0/20, in...

I got myself too. Always been an overanalyzer. It is what it is.

Who cares? Clearly people like arguing about it. If you see a thick/thin debate and you are over it, just scroll to one that's more interesting to you. This is not a forum frequented by normal people, you shouldn't expect normal behavior.

Turtle Wax seal and shine is the easiest one I've used plus its cheap and durable with good shine and slickness. I find it streaks very little and you can get away with imperfect technique and get good results. Griot's 3 in 1 is good but I think it is a little hard to deal with and doesn't...

Interesting. Thin girls and thick oil. I'm the opposite on both counts.
