    New Truck, Short Trips, GDI, Need Advice

    One more thing, I used Amsoil OE 0W20 and changed it myself. It never burned 1 drop between oil changes. I was in Louisiana and made regular trips in my ‘19 Titan PRO4X to see grandkids in Houston. Enjoy you beautiful truck. P.S. I’ve owned about ever make and model of truck there is. Those Zero...

    New Truck, Short Trips, GDI, Need Advice

    Careful cowboy. I’ve owned 4 of the new generation Titan 5.7L’s. One of these babies started making an engine knock at 50K mi. When the Nissan shop called Nissan for warranty approval, they made me show oil changes at 5K max using 0W20.

    Where to now, Amsoil?

    I believe Amsoil SS is a great oil, and I’ve used it in my vehicles for 30 years. The mileage I change oil at depends on the vehicle. My ‘19 Titan would not burn oil for 7,500 miles, then burn a qt of 0W20 SS over the next 1,500 miles. Then, I’d change it. My ‘22 Sierra 5.3L, I’ve put 104K miles...

    I have the 2022 Sierra and put AMSOIL Severe Gear 75W90 in front & rear differentials. Works well.

    Looking for first person story: My warranty denied because of oil used

    I bought a new GM that takes 0W20 dexos rated oil. I used K&N 0W 20 in my previous vehicle and have a stash of it. It does not have the dexos symbol on the oil container. Note that the oil was purchased in January of this year. I called K&N technical service to ask if it was Dexos rated and they...

    Supertech MP Maximum Protection 20K miles filters

    I bought a MP7317 oil filter today. The side of the box referenced Fram 7317, Mobil 110A and K&N 1010, all filters that I have used. The new-gem Titans like a high flow oil filter. $15+ every 5,000 miles for a high-flow RP or K&N is a little pricey. I saw a YouTube video with a cut up MP oil...

    Supertech MP Maximum Protection 20K miles filters

    My ‘19 Titan can use the Fram XG7317, but the Walmart app says the Supertech MP7317 will not work. Wonder why that is?

    Triax Synergy SRT 0w20 or 30 VOA?

    Tried it 2 years ago. Did not leave it in long enough for a UOA. Engine was loud upon startup. Swapped it out 2 weeks later and things were back to normal.

    K&N motor oil

    Ordered 1 gal. jug and some single qts. last week. Ordering it this qualified for some sort of discount and it was cheaper to get it this way directly from K&N vs. ordering two 1 gal. jugs.

    K&N motor oil

    I have owned 4 of the series 2 Nissan Titans. They tend to be a little noisy until the engine is fully warmed up. Along with other brands, I used Ams SS a couple of times, and it tended to burn it. I tried K&N 0W20 and the engine is quiet cold and does not burn any for the 4-5,000 duration. I...

    Nano Pro MT Oil Stabilzer

    I bought a couple bottles on sale 2 years ago. It turned the oil almost black immediately, Oh so I did not use it anymore in my vehicle. I use it in my old lawn more now and it honestly runs like a new mower. It is quieter with less vibration. Not so sure what it did in my automotive dancing...

    Boxed Havoline now available in full synthetic!

    I tried out a 6 qt box of the 0W20 today. Attached a close-able spout on the box opening and adjusted the flow volume into the funnel going in the crankcase. Very easy. Just laid the box on the engine cover. I took the funnel and put into the empty Havoline box and poured the dirty oil in, then...

    Toyota 5.7L, 0w-20 noisy, STP to thicken?

    Likewise, I switched from M1 0W-20 to Pennzoil Platinum 0W-20 and my cold startup lifter tick almost disappeared. Then, I added STP Synthetic Oil Treatment and now it's completely gone.

    17 Kia Sportage: Purolator One vs Purolator Boss for a regular OCI

    I like the Fram Ultra's, too. For the past 2 years, I've been using MicroGreen oil filters. The oil doesn't start turning dark until 7-8,000 miles.
