    ACEA C5 oil instead of A1/B1 ok?

    A1/B1 has been obsolete for 8 years or so. C5 is identical in HTHS, and is also mid SAPS. What they gave you is correct.

    2025 Mobil 1 Rebate

    Anybody else gotten your rebate back yet? These e-gift cards stink to use! Ive tried various ways of spending exactly $10 online and they all get declined.

    2024 Silverado 3.0 Duramax, 18.8k mi; 5W-30 Amsoil Diesel Oil 5k mi

    Im guessing that the sample of 0w20 from about 8,000-13,000 miles (estimating based on your total mileage so far) still had some break-in going on.

    Recommend me a VPN. So many to choose from!

    Just overall privacy. Had a at least 4 fraudulent hits on my CCs over a 3/4 month period. May or may not be related to online activity, but it can’t hurt to be proactive.

    Recommend me a VPN. So many to choose from!

    Been looking into VPNs for awhile, and I still have no clear direction on which to go with. They all seem so similar. Some are faster, some have a few more features, etc. A number of them have cheap plans if you buy a couple years at a time, but I still don’t know which one I want. I have a...

    It comes from [email protected] Fwiw, I bought ESP 0w30.

    2025 Mobil 1 Rebate

    I got both my rebates back today ($5 + $5 bonus for both, so $20 total). Bought from WM online, and submitted the same receipt twice for the two jugs I bought.

    Official 2025 Indy 500 Thread

    The Penske thing stinks. Thankfully, Doug Boles stepped up and called them out. I think the penalty is fair. Some have stated that the slower of the two Penskes should technically be the 34th fastest and ‘bumped’ from the field. But from all available evidence, both cars were legal on Saturday...

    Thinking of going to Mid Ohio

    I haven’t been there since before Covid, but I went there numerous times in the 2010s. Always bought a GA ticket for INDYCAR and IMSA. There’s a big mound/hill at the end of the keyhole straight that gives you a good view of the cars coming and going. Nice place to sit too, just bring a blanket...

    Interesting fluid temp observations on our ‘24 Carnival

    I confirmed this too when I had my 2008 Sedona. Prolonged higher rpm would raise the oil temps pretty quickly. The Carnival makes it hard to rev high since it always tries to upshift as soon as possible. The readings I posted initially were all from 1,500 rpm or lower driving, with the...

    Interesting fluid temp observations on our ‘24 Carnival

    Good idea. I can’t imagine running the recommended 0w16 at those temps.

    Interesting fluid temp observations on our ‘24 Carnival

    Wow. Is yours NA or turbo? What grade are you using?

    Interesting fluid temp observations on our ‘24 Carnival

    Not sure. But my readings align with the published material in the service manual.

    I may have a stash of ESP 0w30 at home…

    Interesting fluid temp observations on our ‘24 Carnival

    Yesterday I got a Bluetooth OBD dongle along with the ‘Car Scanner ELM 327’ app for iOS. Silly name, but GREAT app. I can see oil, coolant, trans temps. Plus a ton of other live info. What really surprised me is just how hot this van runs. Hot=efficient, so I get it. For coolant, it settles...

    US vs Euro 0w20 for new Kia Carnival

    What scanning tool are you using to measure oil temps? I’m looking to get one for our Carnival. I don’t mean to thread bump but I didn’t see an option to PM you.

    What’s a good iOS OBD gauge app for Kia?

    Looks like it’s $9.99 for iOS. I’ve heard that they have extra PIDs though, but not for Kia.

    What’s a good iOS OBD gauge app for Kia?

    I currently have a Scangauge 2 in my Explorer, that was previously in my old Sedona. I rarely use it for DTCs. Its main use is for extra gauges (trans temp, oil temp, etc). I’m looking for a good Bluetooth alternative for our Carnival, since my wife doesn’t want anything permanently mounted. Her...
