Good point on the warranty. Ya [censored].

I have a 2018 Honda Odyssey and I started to get concerned about long term DI carbon build up. I know fuel doesn't reach the valves but I also know of some new Honda DI motors clogging up injectors under 30,000 miles. My thoughts are wouldn't the 10x more cleaning power / additives of premium...

Hi everyone. Wanted to get some thoughts. I have a 2018 Honda Odyssey and started to get concerned about long term DI issues. I'm considering using QSUD 5w20 for its PQI tested 7.1 noack results. Am I correct in assuming there is little to no difference using 5w20 in place of 0w20 as long as...

Decided to buy a new mower and start mowing my lawn again. I live in SW Florida so it’s hot and humid. B&S says use a straight 30wt or a synthetic 5w-30 / 10w30. They even mention using a synthetic 15/40 for outside temperature over 110 degrees. Just wondering what everyone else thought about...

Your right. Actually amazing they did something.

+1 for Akebono. I have had the best success with multiple applications. They are the best IMO. Even sealed out a set of cheap autozone pads after two days with my last accord because they sucked so bad. Soon as I switched them out to the Akebono. Boom better. They are OEM for like half the car...

I think you could make the argument that as TAN increases and TBN decreases you might end up with times where acids are high enough to take a toll on seals. Now the risk isn’t likely to be high with people who are ocd about oil changes but you get people who start extending oil changes because a...

On my brand new 2018 Honda Odyssey there are only 4 jack points and they are not wide enough for me to lift and place the jack stands. And the metal to either side of the jack points is not strong enough to hold the vans weight. Sucks

I have a new Honda Odyssey. I love the idea of this price and convenience. Looking st it I see Dexos 1 Gen 2. There are lots of oils out there that don’t meet that spec for more money. I thought Dexos 1 Gen 2 was a stricter requirement than ILSAC GF5 SN. Why should I be worried if it can hold up...

My new 2018 has only 4 jack points and no way to get the van safely up on 4 jack stands with out considerable work. Theses new cars are getting less and less DIY friendly

You seem a bit defensive about your using the proper method vs me wanting a more easy way. I was looking to see if other people had used the “easy way” and could attest to it doing “just fine” when you search online all formal responses are specifically listing the “proper” method. I respect you...

I figured that bu I was hopeful someone would tell me they do front and back only and haven’t noticed anything strange. Oh well I guess you just have to cross them.

I have two FWD vehicles I’m maintaining. A Honda Odyssey and a Nissan Altima. I know the proper tire rotation pattern fronts to rear and rear across over to front but it’s so easy to just jack up left side right side and simply drop the front to back and back to front. Is this “good enough”...

Just noticed that Fram is advertising the extra guard filter “orange can” as New and improved. Apparently it has a silicone ADBV but what else? Are the just as good now as a standard wix? I love how easy they are to find at Walmart. So many people say they suck but I’m wondering where exactly...

Owner - no one in my office of 18 people knew what I was talking about when I asked if the engine in what they drive is direct injection or port injection. I have only ever heard enthusiasts talk about DI and various engine technology.

I thought this video was really neat. I get that it’s a marketing video but I never knew this is how the oil system in this type of car worked. Kinda cool. Video gets good at about 1:00 min in https://youtu.be/_5VJ3NXzkVU

I agree. Free speech, talk it out. When the people are done talking about the subject then it will die off. Until the time the thread looses steam let the people talk!

My 2008 Altima will make that noise about every 60k Miles. Soon as I change the fluid it goes away. It’s most apparent when it’s hot out. Florida.
