    Oil for BMW 2007 328i

    Tons of thoughts on Liquimoly, none of them say that it is the 'best', but it is a good oil, but most say its not worth the price. https://www.bmwfanatics.co.za/showthread.php?tid=80735 https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/voa-liqui-moly-leichtlauf-high-tech-5w40.253038/#post-4089452...

    2010 Hyundai Santa Fe 3.5L V6, loud startup rattle (with recording!) vvt phasers?

    I know it is common to hear this noice on cars running non OEM oil filters. I might would give that a try before doing the cam phaser.

    Oil for 2021 Mazda CX-5 Skyactiv 2.5L Turbo

    What do you mean by 'spirited driving'? It is a suv with 250 HP, max. Are you taking it to a mountain pass and running it hard with zero cool down time? Taking it to the drag strip? If you aren't doing any of that, then I don't see why you would change the oil weight in the car. Honestly, the...

    HM Honda ATF Fluid

    The 4 cylinder, and honestly the fluid was so black and burnt that anything was better than what was in there. I haven't noticed in change in driving since changing it roughly 18 months ago. i might just run that fluid until 300k since the OEM fluid got me to well over 200k miles.

    HM Honda ATF Fluid

    Good Day BITOG'ers, I have an 05 Honda Accord with ~240k miles on it. I have had the car since it was ~140-160k miles, the first ever transmission fluid change to my knowledge was a year ago, and I changed it with Castrol Import ATF, it was just a drain and fill. I ran across some Valvoline...

    Daughter's car vandalized with what appears to be red grease. Cold out now. Best way to clean it?

    I would worry about damaging the paint with a plastic card. A soft spatula will work fine, but I would also use a hair dryer to warm up the red grease to make it easier to come off. It will be very time consuming.

    ILSAC GF6 Chain Wear Test

    Funny two people quoted this post listing the same car as a I4 with a timing belt instead of chain. Notice I said MOST not all. I know there are examples with belts still. Subaru changed all theirs to chains I believe in '12 or '13, Honda I4's all have chains, Toyotas all have chains, IDK about...

    How cheap is your gasoline lately?

    Just filled up today at Exxon for $1.80/G for 87 octane. Costco is showing $1.67/G for 87 on GasBuddy, but I haven't been to that side of town to verify.

    I wonder if this will work for the 6 quart 'smart change', also this should be moved to the rebates section.

    Am I wasting money with Amsoil/Schaeffers?

    Just consider this, many of people spend $50-100 for full synthetic oil changes all day long at their local dealership or express lube on a regular basis. So, like many other people stated, whether it is worth it or not is completely up to you. The oil industry already makes a killing in profits...
