The John Deere am125424 oil filter appears to be identical to the Kawasaki 49065-7021. Both made by Champ Labs.

V.O.A. If I can find my last Blackstone prepaid mailer.

Sunoco 0w16 case of 12

Purchased a Deere x590 last year before the price increases :). It has the Kawasaki FS730 EFI engine. Deere recommends 10w30 oil and includes their brand of oil in the tune up kit (oil, oil filter, air filter, plugs, etc). However Kawasaki recommends 10w40 oil and their corresponding tune up...

Go with the dealer version for $100 extra. If it needs service under warranty, guess which ones get serviced 1st?, the ones the dealer sold or the ones sold by the big box stores?

Interesting discussion and article references. It was stated Mobil uses Infineum's tri-nuclear moly and needs a lower treat rate, Yet Toyota's latest SP formulation has about 750 of moly and is made by Mobil. Why would Toyota want such a high level of Moly (or a different type) than Mobil uses...

The plant code on the bottle is Mobil Oil plant #102, Is that located in Indiana? Mobil/Exxon Date Code on the bottle =10220J17A Translation: Plant # 102, Year 20 = 2020, Month J = Oct, Day of the month 17, Production run of the day = A

Toyota Genuine Motor Oil (TGMO) 0W16 API SP, Date of Manufacture is Oct 2020 I previously posted a UOA on a factory fill with 46 miles on it. Thought it would be interesting to contribute to the form by posting a VOA of TGMO 0W16 API SP so it could be compared to the factory fill. Your...

A VOA would tell us if the secret sauce used at the factory is the same as that sold at retail

The 2.5l used in the hybrid has a spin on filter located next to the oil pan. Access to the area is via a small panel held in place with four screws. Fill hole cap is labeled 0W16

I am thinking of 5K for oil and filter going forward. If no VOA's are posted on the TGMO 0W16 by that time I may send a VOA sample off for testing. I do not see much value in a UOA at 5K. Perhaps 20K or 25K would be a better baseline UOA indicator for this engine. I am going to stick with TGMO...

2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid 2.5l I4 Build Date 08/2020 46 miles on the oil (Factory Fill) TGMO 0w16 46 miles on the engine The table below is the Blackstone report. I was curious about the factory fill that Toyota used in the 2.5L Hybrid engine thus I pulled a sample via the dip stick when...

Here is a couple of other threads comparing cartridge filters for Toyota. My current favorite is the TRD PTR43-00082. Made by the same folks that make the M1 filters. http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/3117205/1...

I have 2007 Toyota with the 3.5. It has had the cold engine piston slap since new. The manual calls for 5w30 and was later back spec'd to TGMO 0w20, I have tried every weight oil from TGNMP 0w20 to 15w40 HDEO (and every weight in between). Surprize Surprize Surprize the Toyota engineers original...

The 35PSI claim has never been fact checked with an authoritative source. I have contacted GM and ACDelco in the past and both refused to confirm the 35PSI figure. The only reference that has been quoted as a source on the internet is a 3rd party autoparts website. Has anyone actually tested...
