You know, I learn SO MUCH on this BITOG website. Thanks for the help!

What you are saying is on the 30 end of the 30 to 60 on the MSDS. What percent is a full synthetic in Germany, do you know, because I don't. Thanks for the input, by the way.

Thanks edyvw!

Thanks for your help skyactiv!!

A lot of you here on Bitog know how to read an SDS on oil and differentiate between Group III and PAO base stock, roughly. Attempting to learn information like base stock off an SDS is Gibberish to me. I realize Mobil is God's oil here on Bitog, but would one of you please attempt to read the...

Can someone tell me what the difference is between group 3+ and group just Group 3? The Motul tech guy said their 8100 series is group 3+ base stocks

I think that Balwin filter fits a Honda, right? I know a little bit about Baldwin filters. Their plan is to build their filters to the same efficiency and flow rate as the OEM filter as they are replacing. They are Owned by Parker Hanafin Corporation with their filters being made in Kearny...

I will suggest an expensive Mobil 1 M1-102A or a Baldwin. Here is a link to the Baldwin if we match the number on the Fram box in the picture. Notice in the Balwin specs they offer two larger versions of the match to the Fram number...

IMO, like every 3000 miles.

I still think he should pull some oil samples, it doesn't cost that much, and there is a lot of info. Maybe do it a couple times, if nothing shows up, don't do it anymore. I do know the Honda 1.5T had worse fuel dilution issues than my 2.4. Maybe they fixed the issue, or like you said, maybe...

Something you should be aware of is I owned a 2015 Honda CRV I purchased brand new. 2015 was the last year of the 2.4L non-turbo engine being put in. After that they started using the same engine you have, the 1.5L turbo engine. I sent in an engine oil sample on one of my 5000-mile oil change...

Thanks Subie, you just taught me something!

You could add HPL (High Performance Lubricants) to your list if you are willing to spend that kind money. All three are really high-end oils compared to the Majors. I personally would move up to a 0w-30 or 5w-30 though, maybe even a Euro oil to get your HTHS >3.5 or higher. That is just my...

You are definitely correct about this. What Is the vehicle and engine and what does the owner's manual recommend for oil with the stock engine, before you modified it?

My local Walmart has none of this in stock, but you can order it online from them and have it delivered to your door. I wonder if Walmart is phasing it out.

They still sell this at my local Walmart here in Nebraska.

I don't know.

You know, HPL and Amsoil are probably the best money can buy. I am just not willing to pay the initial cost. Thanks for the info TiGeo.

Of those three, what did you like the best? I have used the Royal Purple HPS and loved it, but I didn't realize until now it had an HTHS of >3-5.

I have been studying 0w and 5w-30 oils a little that have a 3.5 or higher HTHS value. So far, I had this reply back from Castrol USA. I sent the same request to Mobil and Pennzoil/Shell, I am waiting for replies from those two yet. Some that I already know of are Kendall GT-1 Max Euro 5w-30 with...
