So why would it not be after you get your engine cleaned out with VRP?

No - the clacking noise you are hearing is your valvetrain. It's not silent, and if an oil quiets it down, it's temporary until it has some miles on it. Besides that, the K24 exhaust valves get tighter with mileage between adjustments, not looser. Intake valves get looser with mileage. I...

2024 CX-5, or any of them. We had a 2020 model, and it had the 5-year 100K mile warranty. Pretty standard across the board. When we traded it in for our 2024 we then discovered that Mazda change their warranty to 10 years/100K miles. The Skyactiv engines apparently require filters without...

I wish but they have ADBV's, can't use them.

Mazdaswag - no, never again.

I would, except that the engine my wife's car specifically calls for a filter without the ADBV and it's got about 9 more years left on the factory warranty. Today I found the OE Mazda filters on Amazon for just over $11, made in Japan by Toyo Roki. I was just hoping for a cheaper alternative...

Older thread, but my search brought me here. Are the standard Microgard (non-Select) filters made by Purolator now? I am trying to avoid any made by M+H.

M1-110A Glenda showed above what I managed to miss, as hard as I looked on mine.

I know that on the M1 cases of 6 filters, they are labeled as made in Vietnam, but how do you tell if the filter is made in Vietnam just from the individual box and filter case itself?

Mine has seen everything from Castrol to Pennzoil to Mobil 1in 0W20/5W20/5W30/10W30. Microgreen, Denso, Honda, and more regarding filters, and every interval between 5K and 10K miles. I can't actually believe it looked as good as it does, considering I basically have used it as an experiment...

Sylvania kit > the rest

I buy either McKees N-914 or Adams Hoseless Wash and dilute them into rinseless or waterless wash, detail spray, drying aid, or clay lube depending on the ratio needed. Both products are multipurpose concentrates.

Has anyone with a K24 used any particular oil that changed anything with the VTC actuator rattle on start up?

Here is mine back in 2023 with 239K on it. I just turned 285K yesterday.

I think it just comes down to price. As long as it's an OEM style paper filter, you likely won't notice any difference in the small difference in efficiency between them.

It is a PG product.

I have done this many times before but not at home. Basically with a hot engine, you locate an intake manifold port that feeds all cylinders and connect a short hose to it. You install the stepped nipple of the bottle hose into it, and restart the engine while idling between 2 and 3000 RPM and...

It is worth getting ceramic coat, but like stated previously, the work is in the prep - but they also need to have some buffer of protection from another ceramic/SiO2 product to keep the ceramic coat itself preserved. Ceramic just provides a base layer sealant. Some of them won't shine as...

You need to wash and clay the paint, then use an iron remover for the brake deposits. https://a.co/d/hqviF2B https://a.co/d/5ejhjiq
