HPL or Amsoil. Both probably have great options for this application. Edit: Please make sure he skips the Brotella.

I’m not convinced that the A01 was any better than the Made in Japan Mahle 15400-RTA-003 that’s out there now. I have a handful of the 003’s, and while they may not have the highest efficiency (like all Japanese OEM oil filters) they have excellent build quality.

This. Polaris/Amsoil uses gas chromatography. They also offer oxidation in their base testing, and the price is very comparable to Blackstone. With either of these, you can use the Horizon app to enter and track your samples.

Very small sample size as I’m new to AT’s. But, DT could not get BFG KO3’s to balance on my new Frontier last year. Went through 7 of them in about 2 weeks and 5 trips to the shop. Switched to the Falkan Wildpeak AT4W and they balanced the first try.

We’re back to huffing engine oil. We should replace ASTM oil testing with you guys sniffing oil and listening to startup noise.

That’s fine. But, we still have no idea what all is included in that invoice when 3/4 of it is not shown.

I’m talking about the other 3 pages of the invoice that are not shown.

There’s other work in addition to the taillights included in this invoice. Edit: and that isn’t even the entire invoice. We are missing 42 other lines.

Are you sure?

Did you even read the invoice?

My heart is not healthy enough for this emotional roller coaster.

I think it means edyvw was enjoying some adult beverages.

I believe the kids these days classify these types of shenanigans as “wildin’”.

How many miles on the car?

I meant this specific Mobil 1 Advanced Clean 5w-20. Not 5w20 in general. Many oil product lines may have 0w-20, 5w-20, and 5w-30 viscosities in them, but only the 0w-20 and 5w-30 showing Dexos approval for whatever reason. Kirkland signature, pennzoil platinum, and Mobil 1 Truck and SUV are...

My snout doesn’t need lubrication, thank you very much.

Are we sure the 5w-20 was Dexos approved at some point? I’m not able to find any documentation of this. But, as is the norm, I can find it for the 0w-20 and 5w-30.

If that’s the case, 3 drain and fills will leave you with about 12% of the “original” fluid. My 2006 Accord is similar. 7qts total. 3 qts drain and fill. Honda recommends 3 drain and fills in quick succession I believe every 60k. However, I’ve chosen to do a drain and fill every other oil...

What is the total fluid capacity of your transmission vs the amount that is drained out during a drain and fill?

Interesting that the transfer case fluid smelled that bad. I changed the fluid in my ‘25 Frontier’s T-case at 20k mi and I questioned my decision to do so as it was draining. It came out a perfect translucent reddish ATF color with no visible glitter. Thankfully, it was only about $25 in...
