Anyone have experience with any Falken knockoff tires? I bought a set a few months ago and left rear was flat but the others were good. I just refilled and waiting..I caught it within 1 day so no big deal.

Got an offer for 4 for 40 dollars per tire. IS this a good deal or is it never a good idea to buy used tires (from unPROfessional humans)

Guys, I wouldn't have believed it unless I just saw it unfold and and bloom this past few weeks. I'm on (and been using 5w weight to the exclusion of 10w FOREVER) a 5w-30 fill and getting no better then about 17.xx mpg. Ever since I topped off with 10-30 PYB, that mileage has creeped up to about...

bad news, just found out I have been embarked "far too long" on an over 8500 miles OCI. I didn't think I drove that many miles. "What had happened was", the sticker that tell you the mileage you should come back for an oil change typically found affixed on the top left of your winshield had...

In my 95 SC3 with no leaks EVER (probably the only reason to have the slug V6 over the ultra quick V8), I just topped off maybe .3 to .4 or almost half quart with PYB 10-30 with those Acive agents for sludge in a Valvoline 5w-30 full syn OCI but still, bone conventional oil so conventional...

Ok guys, gals and PALS, I am currently embarked on a 7k-ish OCI and have Valvoline full synthetic 5w-30 in it now. Not sure how far into this OCI I am about 5-6k in now and had checked the dipstick and saw it about < .5 quart. I topped it off along with Pennzoil 10-30 conventional and used the...

Guys, My second oil change in my ownership tenure. Got a 1995 Lexus Sc 300 about a year ago to replace the 06 vtec v6 Accord that bears my account name here. It's gold with gold package. Bought it at 126k and got almost 140k but it came with fresh fluids albeit from the GMC dealership I bought...

Ok ghies, I got me a Lexus Sc 3 about a month ago and at the time, it had all its fluids changed except brake. About the oil. Right now it is using some synthetic 30 weight. I am stuck on MC oil cause it is as good if not better then M1 and PZ from all the UOAs I have seen plus all the...

Hey guys, I picked up a 1995 Lexus Sc 300, gold on gold with the gold package in mint condition and it came from the state of PA. I know, my name is Accord V6 but I either I was a victim of road rage or my own careless driving, not sure what occurred, and banged it up too much in a road...

For all you 5_30 and 10_xx snobs, my car was originally speced for 5w_30 but been using 5w_20 SEMI-SYNTHETIC. here is my cool story bro. Had to tell you about why semi-synthetic oil for OLM controlled oil changes were dropping like flies meaning the engine was reporting more revolutions, higher...

Hello, I've been mobbing my 06 Accord V6 slab since late 2005 and have enjoyed using MC 5w-20 semi-syn since after I finished the FF, breaking it in brand new with Driveclean 5000/7500until I reached 21,500 total original miles!! Now that GF 5 beckons and we enjoy more choices then ever with...

I was wondering if using Maxlife on a car with a few thousand less then 75000 miles would be a bad or good thing? Anyone who knows more about Maxlife's ingredients needed for it's older miles would be a benefit to a Honda V6 engine which had about 72k when I used Maxlife 5w-20.

Boy I must say that Fuel efficient oils aka oils that give you better gas mileage or lets just say more miles per tank/fill up has got to be all the rage right now due to insane gas prices.. but the problem or dilemma has to be to identify which oils actually save gas for you and more...

Anyone know what I can use to remove some primer that is on my car's paint as a result of some touch-up paint I was applying on scratches? Thanks.

I got the Super Tech filter for my last oil change and I am bout to drop my oil again for yet another OCI!! They were out of the usual ST7317 Super Tech oil filter for my 3.0 liter V6 I roll on. I happen to read in the book that the Fram Extended Guard can also be used. So I get to reading on...

I just changed my oil TODAY to an MC cousin, the Conoco Phillips Super All Season Synthetic Blend (see below) and this was my first oil change where I did it all by myself from A to Z..yes even loosening the existing oil filter (that's usually tighened by a shop). I tell you, it feels good to...

Since I had pretty good results with the one OCI I did with Conoco Phillips Motorcraft 5w-20 and also because cooler Fall weather, which one of these CP based oil should I use for my next OCI: Motorcraft or Conoco Super Allseason Synthetic Blend, both in 5w-20? Here is the Data Sheet for the...

Is it a mere coincidence that after PP fill (current), I'm blowing the coldest A/C since mile 1 to about 27k when I put this PP fill in.

I am using my first fill of synthetic oil. Doesn't the first time synthetic oil use (maybe more-so with certain oils) clean the engine if the engine is indeed has some impurities in it? Btw, I am using a bigger filter so pick up all the debris that it might be killing. Doing a short 3k OCI...

Still got PP in the CC with M1 and A02 waiting in the wings. Life in #@$%! is incessantly eternal. ofcourse, the M1 can be swapped out with the Mc and I can get one of those WM credit cards for the rest (Mickey Ds is right caddy corner) Hey, I got a question though. If PPs cSt @ 100 is 8.45...
