Has anyone bought/used/tested Amazon's house brand full synthetic oil? Just wondering if there have been any takers so far. Link: https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics...eL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/2004-09-08-honda_x.htm Based on my experince with my Honda Civic, the oil filter is in such a bad spot if one is not extra careful and spills oil, a fire could start because it tends to spill on the exhaust pipes. This really makes me happy I change my own oil.

My 99 Civic loves Mobil 1 or Exxon. Consistently gets higher gas mileage with XOM than any other brand. My previous ride (86 Jetta) hated Mobil and loved Hess.

Hello all- Just bought a 2004 Corolla. I changed the oil at 175 miles with Castrol GTX 5w-30. Dealer/manual states break in period is done at 1000 miles. My questions are: 1) At 1000 miles, can/should I go to synthetic or should I run a dino/blend a few thousand miles more to let everything seat...
