I had the exact same thing happen to me last summer with a PH2867XL while spinning it on to my Type-R. It would start threading on and stop dead after 1/4 turn give or take. Did not even attempt to force it, threw it in the trash & grabbed another one that I had on hand. No idea the batch or...

I don't have an O'Reilly near me. Closest one is an hour away but grabbed the MGS last time I was in the area. Advance Auto is close and I'll probably just roll with the Carquest Premiums or the Ecogards long term. I tend to buy a years worth of filters at once for both Honda's and the Mazda I...

Agree. As long as no leaks after 5000 miles, I guess I don't have an opinion. I do have one of the PG carquest premiums here that I picked up last week as well. Media is a tad lighter in color and the gasket is rounded like the microgard select but made of nitrile. That'll get spun on the car...

Can verify. Got an S4610 delivered today. Hefty build! I was using ChampXL’s exclusively but I’m moving over to PG based filters now on my cars. Pics show differences between the ecogard and microgard select. Same fitment. Ecogard is from China. Microgard select is from Vietnam. I *think* I...

I just put a fresh K24 in a 2005 Accord EX that my Aunt bought new and popped the original motor last spring (watch the upper radiator neck - it broke, she didn't notice before it melted down). I couldn't let a rust free car head to the junkyard and had it shipped from Colorado to NY, sourced a...

Honda wrench since the early 90s. I have a 2019 civic type-r. 5k interval, valvoline ep 0w-20 and a champ xl PH2867XL. Oil from wally, filters by the dozen from rock. Done. Either valvoline ep or m1 ep will do you well. Different powertrain but i run my car a lot and run it hard on occasion...

Long time Honda guy here, back to the 80s carb'd cvvc days. Have been through many jdm replacement engine swaps on civics and about to do one on a rust free 2005 accord with a blown motor that my aunt's owned since new. Here's what I do. New thermostat, water pump, timing belt if applicable...

Picked up 4 (2-5qt jugs each) boxes of Kirkland 0W-20. Costco had it on sale for $30.99. Also 8 Super Tech ST6607's. The lady drives a LOT for work (80% highway) and I'm changing oil on that vehicle every two to three months at 7500 mile intervals. Essentially paying half for the next eight oil...

I have a 2019 FK8 CTR. I run it on 0w20 Valvoline EP on 5,000-ish intervals with Champ XL filters and have zero issues. Level stays solid where I fill it to. Dilution does not impact the K20C1's as badly as it does the L15's. These are tricky to fill properly due to the orange plastic at the end...

Put 3 Champ PH2867XL's in a rock order this week. They arrived today. Black ADBV otherwise identical to the case I purchased last June with rock. I run them on my Type-R without any issues or concern. 5k-ish OCI, never an issue. I stopped using the Ultra's after the new design came and briefly...

Took advantage of the warmer 40 deg weather this weekend and changed 2 of the 3 vehicles oil. Beater Buick is getting a change next weekend. 2019 Honda Civic Type-R Out: Valvoline EP 0W-20 w/Champ XL Filter (5521 miles) In: Valvoline EP 0W-20 w/Champ XL Filter 2021 Mazda CX-5 Out: Valvoline EP...

For S2K, reach out to John at LHT Performance in Pinellas Park, FL. He is an S2K master. He can confirm but I would run conventional for 500-1000 and dump it for synth. Change it frequently going forward.
