Bought a C280 with 192K. What would be the preferred oil to use for 5K OCI? Mostly hwy miles.

Got the 5 qt jug at WM for $7.88. Thought I'd give it a try in my Toyota 4X4 with 233K. Wondered if anyone had used it and what was your opinion.

Hi guys. I'm looking at a 95 Corolla for my stepdaughter; her 90 Accord finally died. It's a LX, auto with 152K on it for $2000. Have not driven it yet but the body seems to be in good shape. Wondered if anyone had owned one and what problems if any they had. Thanks for all replies.

Old subject I know but I have not seen a solid answer. I have narrowed my choices down to two; Motorcraft or Havoline. If they are both a blend then it won't matter-probably won't matter anyway since I do 3k OCI's. There are only pennies difference in price in my area and Walmart stocks both...

My wife works from home and is always sticking those sticky notes to the comp screen. I tell her that it's not a good idea but she doesn't believe me. Am I correct or not? She might believe an answer from you guys. Thanks, Pete

My Dad and Mom bought a 96 motorhome with a 460 ci engine. It's a 29 footer with only 19K on it. Don't know anything about previous maintence. He changed the oil when he first got it and put Castrol Syntec 10W-30 in it. It's driven about every other weekend for anywhere from 50 to 200 miles...

I have a 2001 Sentra 2.0 with 51,000 miles on it. Driven very little now as my wife is working from home. Currently has PP in it and seems to be doing great. Question is would Maxlife synthetic be a better choice for the limited miles driven (about 5K a year now) or is the PP going to be fine...

I know this is probably a repeat but here goes. MC says it is a blend but what about Pennzoil, Castrol, Havoline and the others. Also, are the other weights of Motorcraft (5W-30 & 10W-30) considered very good? Trying to find an oil that I am comfortable with in all of my vehicles, lawnmower...

I have a JD 120 with a 20 HP B & S. It calls for 10W-30 and I have been using reg Pennzoil in it. Would Pennzoil Platinum be ok or would it make any difference in this engine? Oil and filter changed every 50 hrs.

2001 Nissan Sentra SE 2.0 ltr. Currently running PP with no problems; just wondering if GC would be any better for this car/engine. OCI every 3K (about every 4 months) with purolator filters. Wife drives 20 miles round trip daily hwy speeds. Probably 70% hwy-30%city. Car has 50K miles on it...

Trying to locate a cheaper filter for my JD 120. B & S 20 hp intek.

I and in the N.E. Georgia area and I have never seen T/A. We have Advance, Autozone, Pep Boys, Napa, O'Reillys, Walmart. No T/A in any of them??? Any Ideas? Thanks...

Valvoline Durablend, Motorcraft, Kendall or Trop Artic (if I could find it) syn-blend at 5K OCI. Both 5W-20 and 5W-30. Please don't use cost as a reason and filters will be MC and/or Pur.

I found this site about a month ago, (it's great)! It seems to be that the general rule of thumb is---for 3 to 6K OCI's pretty much any name brand/store brand dino wil do. It really is what each individual is comfortable with. Of course now the choices are many and I haven't made my final...

Are Havoline/Chevron Supreme considered to be the better 5W-20/5W-30 dino oils on the market? Can get both in my area Chevron being a little cheaper.

Which would be the best choice for 5K OCI's-MC, Kendall, Castrol or Valvoline? 5W-30 and 5W-20----70% highway 30% city. All 4 cyl. engines. Mazda has 2500 miles, Nissan has 49,000 and Toyota has 230,000.

I have a 89 Toyota 4WD, an 01 Nissan Sentra and a 06 Mazda 2300. Looking to get all of them on one brand. Currently have the Toy on Valvoline Maxlife 10W-30, the Nissan on 5W-30 PP and the Mazda on MC 5W-20. Thinking of Havoline or MC for all of them. I do 3000 oil changes (hard habit to...
