If I was out of warranty sure, but its brand new.

Thanks for the reply. So I double checked the O.M. and I see no mention of alternative grades being "okay" per Honda, so it looks like Im sticking with that 0w-20 while under the 3/36k warranty. I need to see if I can find out why Honda says to sit on the FF until the M.M. says so. Interested in...

Thanks. I would pull about 15k a year on this car and its 90% highway commute. So good for the car on that aspect for sure... I would most likely use OEM as its a piece of mind and helps with warranty issues Im guessing if any should arise. Thanks!

Now if you dont mind me asking, so I get it, but why does Honda say to leave the FF in? They dont use a break-in oil, correct? And I checked in the manual and it doesnt state that I can use an alternative weight oil. Is there a TSB or something that states as such? thanks for the reply.

So this is going to be my next commuter until I retire at around 12 years/175kmi of usage. The motor is the naturally aspirated 2.0 K20C2 variant. I planned on running the oil out until the Maintance Minder tells me to do a change out, but seems most say 7500mi max per OCI. Here are my...

So I couldn't have thought of a better place to ask this lol. Long story short my wifes Edge takes 5.75qts. This oil change, I had a qt left over from the last in the jug, or so I thought... I threw the new full 5qt jug in and went to throw the remaining .75qt fromt the other jug( from the...

Impressive

These kind of cleanings have me paranoid with breaking particles off and lodging somewhere they shouldn't. May end up Scaring a cylinder wall or something lol

Understood but it'll help the injectors, no?

I know techron and redline were the go-to's backing the day with Gumout lately coming back into the picture. I was wondering what is the one to get or look at now days? My wife has a 2015 Ford edge with a direct injection engine. I noticed the idle felt a bit, rougher? No issues to note and the...

Yeah some of the heads do come from Ford out of spec according to Ford, using their own procedure checking for head flatness. Kinda crazy lol

I'm saying I'm in need of an oil change within the next 6 months. I don't mean hoard it when we see it. Basically a year ago, we would say well I need an oil change tomorrow, let me get some today. Now we need to plan a head for that OCI

In case anyone else is interested, here is a good thread with several manufacturers claims on shelf life https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/motor-oil-shelf-life.309303/

Thanks to all!

Can they store in a garage that gets cold

I'm buying oil for the 6.7 powerstroke. 5w40 oil.

Sorry for the redundant thread but if buying oil and wanting to use it within say 6 months or so, how long should it really last? Id guess upon using it, I should give it a good shake or is that even really needed? We're at the point where we need to buy oil when we see it, not when we need...

Thansk but amazon is cheaper now and has been in the last month or so. Im going to hold off possibly for amazon when they're price drops again...

When I click on that it gives me NO option to ship, or pick up... its all grayed out.

So with Rotella being nearly non-existent in my area in the last few months, Im going to need to figure something out come spring time when my OCI is going to be due. I have Rotella in my '19 6.7 and I think Im going to chase the Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme this time. I know Napa has sales on...
