    GL-4 , GL-5 synthetic gear oil : REDLINE MT-90 ...

    I have MT-90 in the transmission of my MazdaSpeed 6 and like it so far. I put MTL in the wife's 1970 MGB and have only taken it around the block. It usually calls for 20W-50 oil, but I wanted to give the Red Line a try.

    PP 5W30 4,818 - Mazdaspeed 3 2.3L DISI Turbo

    I have a MazdaSpeed CAI new in box for my Speed6 that I have yet to install. My fuel numbers have never been more than a trace (Blackstone), but my oil has thinned down each time. I wonder if your highway driving has helped keep the fuel dilution a bit lower?

    Are you a member of the 10K OCI club?

    I ran 11,000-12,000 mile intervals on our Envoy. The one UOA I did on Mobil 1 look great for that interval.

    Life after people

    I was flipping through the channels a few weeks ago ad caught a show about a small town near Chernobyl that was evacuated and closed to re-population. The animal and plant life is quickly reclaiming the area. It was pretty neat to watch.

    Best 5w20 ?

    I've been running synthetic in my MazdaSpeed 6 (10W-30) and plan on doing so in our new CX-9. The manual doesn't tell me not to, so that's good enough for me.

    Additive to combat fuel dilution

    I actually meant to post this in the oil additive forum. I must have been browsing the fuel one instead. My concern is how the oil is thinning down during the course of the interval. Being a little turbo engine, I was thinking thinning oil would be a bad thing.

    Additive to combat fuel dilution

    My MazdaSpeed 6 is a direct injection motor. As seen by the numerous UOA's on this engine (Speed6, Speed3, CX-7), the oil seems to thin out by quite a bit during even a 3,000-4,000 mile interval. Here is my last UOA. As you can see, there was only a trace amount of fuel detected in the two...

    07 Mazda CX-7, 2.3L Turbo, Pennzoil Plat. 10W-30

    I have a MazdaSpeed 6. I've had small amounts of fuel dilution in my two samples. I'm down to 5 or so miles per trip now, so I wonder who that will affect things. I have Mobil 1 5W-30 in there now.

    GMC Envoy Mobil 1 5W-30 10,200 miles

    Holy old thread Batman! As I mentioned previously in the thread, I had a large collection of Mobil 1 that cost me about $2 per quart. I also mentioned that I take pride in the vehicles I take care of. Everyone has different standards when it comes to these things. I still stand by my...

    How many PENNZOIL PLATINUM users ?

    I have 12 quarts of Free After Rebate Platinum sitting on my shelf now. It will end up in one of our vehicles at the next oil change. I had to finish off my Buy 1 Get 1 Free stash of Mobil 1 (from 2005) and Free After Rebate Quaker State Q Advanced first. :)

    Your opinions on these Detail Supply Companies....

    Detailing 1-4 cars a month doesn't quite require bulk products. I'd experiment with smaller sizes until you find the right product combination that works for you.

    93 plus octane- where to buy?

    If the new chip only requires 91, why are you looking for values higher than 93?

    I ran Mobil 1 5W-30 for almost 12,000 miles and the UOA came out just fine. I'm sure the report is on this forum somewhere.
