    Old Buick 3800 with slight oil leak

    I had an 03 Lesabre with the Gen II 3800. Much as you describe, it would drip and mess mainly from the valve covers all over the garage floor. I had the best success with Quaker State High Mileage 10W30 which pretty much worked to stop all leaks. I'm not even sure if the particular oil is...

    My sister is car shopping...

    The wife bought a 2025 Forester Limited back in July when they first hit the lots. We are Subaru people and this newest version is much smoother and quieter than the last Forester she owned (2017). Great choice IMHO!

    2024 Silverado 1500 LT Crew 4x4 5.3 or 2025 Ram 1500 Bighorn Crew 4x4 3.0 Hurricane?

    Both are very nice trucks, but I chose the Silverado over the Ram when I purchased last. I have a 23 RST with the 5.3. For whatever reason my experience with GM trucks is they outperform with mpg over and above their EPA estimates. Good luck in deciding.

    Which would you pick from new Elantra SE, Jetta SE, or Malibu LS

    I actually own a 24 Elantra SE. My job changed this past January where I have a fairly long commute and I was looking for a low cost new vehicle that was good on gas mileage. Used car prices back then were still stupid high and it didn't make sense to spend almost as much on a used anything. I...

    What vehicles are your local police department purchasing now?

    Even though I live in NC and am obviously biased, the black and silver color combo on the NC Highway Patrol vehicles have always been sharp looking and pretty intimidating on about any vehicle, even back in the old days. This is especially so on that Mustang. Doesn't mean I want to see him in...

    What vehicles are your local police department purchasing now?

    Local law enforcement is purchasing Dodge Durangos (less expensive I assume). The NC Highway Patrol had a story out the other day where they are moving from the Dodge Chargers to Ford Mustangs. Not a lot of car options left.

    LOL, my brand loyalty is only in "name" only. I actually have used and really like Valvoline products in the past. I expect it will be the same with R&P.

    Rock Auto? Legit place to buy GM oil filters like PF63? Counterfeit?

    I bought three PF63s from Rock Auto some months back. If they are counterfeit, the are the best replicas I've ever seen. They do seem to ship them without packaging. I suspect they buy them by the case and ship them out. No biggie as they were in excellent shape when I got mine. But as...

    Purolator tech

    I have used multiple Purolator Techs TL14615's on our fleet of Subaru vehicles with no issues whatsoever. Seems to be as you say a regular Purolator with a nitrile adv.

    2024 Frontier 3.8 - New Addition

    LIke you, I was never a big Nissan fan, but with a NA 3.8 V6 and good styling, I believe if I were in the mid-sized truck market it would be my first choice now. Very nice truck. Congratulations!
