06 Honda accord 3.0. Was thinking of going to 0w30, but didn't want to do something 'stupid'

I was told by someone at Carquest that their branded synthetic was actually Valvoline Synpower. Yet...its half the price? Was just curious if this is true, or is it like synpower minus all the good stuff in the add pack?

I had a vendor (who doesn't sell RP...he's our BG rep) telling me that Royal purple was the best synthetic out there...and WAY better than M1 and PP et al. Just curious what the consensus around here is? Is it worth the extra price? I did a search, but there wasn't a whole lot of info..

Anyone know of a suitable replacement? Amsoil says their 75w90 SVG meets all the specs. I have M1 75w90LS.

I have a new to me 06 accord v6, that I want to change the oil on. I have a M1 filter, but was reading something (probably [censored]) on a honda forum that the honda filters have something in them others don't thats better for those engines?!? Anyway, I was going to go with PP 5w20 and the M1...

2006 Accord 3.0 EX. 85k. (I have to assume most of that is freeway, cause thats ALOT of miles for three years.) Anything that I should be wary of? Services that I should immediately do? Car looks brand new (aside from a few chips on the front) nothing appears to be leaking, shifts feel good...

Anyone ever seen or used these before? Thoughts? Price is right...

I am parts manager at a GM dealer. I have lost my local distributor and have been approached by every body and their brothers to get my business. I have gotten the list down to three options and was wondering if all things equal (prices are close, everyone provides floormats and that stuff)...

Does anyone know who GM uses for this stuff? I would assume since their oil contract is with Mobil, that it is probably the Mobil 1 LS 75-90. The dealer wants $35/qt for the stuff. I'm pretty sure its not made out of gold, but I want to use the right stuff....

Fill cap calls for 5W30, but I am looking for fuel savings, if it won't hurt anything. Entering spring in the pacific northwest, so not worried about freezing tempatures by the time the next change comes around.

I am a GM parts manager in the process of re-negotiating a contract with an oil supplier. For the last ten years or so we have used Chevron supreme as our bulk oil, but our local distributor has closed and the area we are in has been taken over by a much larger company that quite frankly, I...

I have a 2008 GMC Acadia with the 3.6 (60 degree aluminum) engine. My local dealer uses Chevron oil and AC delco filters. I have a couple questions. Is chevron good conventional oil? Are the delco filters good quality, or is there something better I should use? Is it ever too early to start...
