    Chrysler 04861746AA (2013 Charger)

    Changed the air filter in the Charger today. Didn't look like it needed it but it was a bit passed the manufacturer's interval so I put one in. Noticed this on the old one and thought I'd post it, never seen anything like this on a filter.

    Petro-Canada Duron Syn|0w30|7386km(4589m)|G6 3.5L

    This run was for about 9 months, mostly short trips and idling. I'm not sure how many times I reset the OLM but it was at least 3, the last being the week it was changed. I did try to get it out for a run at least once a month. I don't know what the future holds as my wife's work schedule is...

    PP | 5w20 | 7857km(4882m) | Dodge Charger 3.6

    I bought this last August with almost 27000 on the clock. It was a daily rental and I bought it at the Dodge dealer where my son is apprenticing so the guys in the shop went over it pretty good. They use Pennzoil products and it had a fresh fill of PYB and a Mopar filter when I picked it up. I...

    Match Mounting

    I picked up a set of used Mopar wheels to mount my winter tires on. I noticed while cleaning them up that there is a bright yellow sticker in the drop well of each rim. Anyone know if this is for match mounting? I have read that Chrysler match mounts their wheels and tires at the factory so...

    CATERHAM BLEND | 60%/40% | 15161KM(9420m)|G5 2.4L

    For your UOA pleasure or displeasure, depending on how you see it, Caterham Blend from my G5 2.4L Ecotec. This was 60% TGMO/40% M1 0w40 same as I used in the G6. Usage is a 60km trip both ways to work but only every other week. Some city use, maybe a bit more than before, lets call it 30% now...

    Monroe vs KYB....again

    Where are we in the opinion pole? Strut mounts are gone on the front of the G6 and at 260k km, I'm sure the struts could use replacement too. I put KYB on the back last year, shocks and mounts and have no issues or concerns with them. I realize the Monroe Quick-Struts would be easier but how...

    Anyone doing any home brewing?

    Been doing some reading about this, seems like fun especially since I can't make my own oil!...lol Any experiences to share?

    What oil to use next?

    Next change is coming up for the G5 and I'm tossing around a bunch of ideas on what to do so I thought I'd put it out there and see if the popular consensus helps me decide.... This will be in for 1 year, ~20000km and will be going in likely in May. I already have the M1 filter that will be...

    Anyone using Mobil 1 ATF in a Dexron VI app?

    Just what the title says, anyone tried this? Or I guess any other fluid, good or bad results.

    TGMO | 0w20 | 7748km(4814m) | Mazda3 2.0 MZR

    First full OCI on my son's Mazda3. Same oil and filter put back in. This is a short tripper, several times a day for an average of 50km/day. I have my doubts that the oil ever gets up to temperature, or at least not very often. We do try to get it out for a couple hour highway run once a...

    Android OBDII Apps

    Anyone using a Bluetooth OBDII adapter and an Android app like Torque? I ordered an ELM 327 adapter tonight and will be getting the Torque Pro version when it comes in. Looks like it will be a lot of fun!

    NAPA Gold 7082 [USED]

    This is from the 16000km run in the G5, UOA here. Contrary to how it looks, the cover was not hard to tighten down to this point. None of the folds appear to have been compromised but I still don't like the look of this. It seems to be a common occurrence with the 57082/7082 and I probably won't...

    M1-102 [CUT OPEN]

    From the second OCI on the Mazda, UOA here. I still like the one piece element and bypass/neck compared to the Wix style. I don't like the extra pleat spacing at the seam but it shouldn't be an issue. Very solid filter as expected.

    Wix 51356 [CUT OPEN]

    Wix 51356 from my buddy's '02 Civic. Another solid Wix offering but boy these are small! This was in service for about a year and a half but not a lot of mileage. Again, I do believe some of the grit in the can is from the engine, not just from cutting.

    Wix 51040 [CUT OPEN]

    This is the filter from my first OCI on the CATERHAM blend, UOA here. Nothing out of the ordinary, typical Wix. Maybe less wavy than the last one I used. You can see some grit in the bottom of the can, I don't think it is from cutting the can (I use a rotary tool) as the two filters I opened...
