Carries an ACEA A3/B4 - 12 & API Service SN Suitable for a LBZ Duramax? Got 2 cases for free, was going to give it a try. What do you think??

Nobody seems to use it, here anyway, no real push to get it out to the masses that I've seen, is it bad??

Have a small fiberglass enclosed trailer to haul one motorcycle. Will be hauling a bike from CT to NC, off loading and then using the trailer for a carry-all to FL and then home to CT. Tires that are on there are different brand and of unknown age, I got the trailer in 09 and they haven't been...

Truck needed new shocks, so I brought it to "my Guy", told him to give it a once over and lube the front end, he asks, need an oil change? I was due in a few hundred miles, so I said, yeah go ahead, synthetic he asks, I say nah, just dino please. So I now have an unknown 15w40 circulating...

Bought my wife a 2017 RAV 4 and I am getting to the age where I am going to be completely hands off. All maintenance will be done at the dealer. That being said, first oil change is suppose to be at 10,000 miles, or one year ! My "oil disease" makes me shake and sweat, can it go one year or 10 k...

Any love or hate for this stuff? I saw 2 two gallon jugs on clearance at my local Tractor Supply, was 32.99 each, now 16.99 each. Worth it?

My wife and I have a small condo in Satellite Beach Florida. The water heater blew, caused some water damage to the tile floor that was over the terrazzo floor. That has been removed, now the floor needs some attention, we are heading south in a few weeks and I know there are a few Floridians on...

Just noticed that my local WM is carrying Chevron 5w40 synthetic. Now I've been swayed away from using synthetics (dnewton ) and I have no real reason to use this one either, BUT I so love Chevron Delo and the synthetic's silver bottle is just so gosh darn sexy that I must just have to try a...

My daughter has a 2000 MB ML320, which they purchased used with 60k on it. Mobil 1 0w40 is the preferred oil of choice and thats what it got last oil change ( that I paid for). Well it's been 10k miles and it's time for an oil change, that they can't afford and frankly I don't want to fork out...

I see an influx of "what oil to use" threads,myself included. After reading thousands of recomendations alot say I use 0wXX or 5wXX in winter and use 10wxx in summer. I believe I understand enough about oil to see no real advantage to this practice in a normal reasonably healthy engine. For...

names of oil??? Rotella,Delo,Helux (sp?), Delvac and countless products that may have been discontinued? I find it a bit peculiar especially asking , "hey got any Rotella?" Just my random thought for today.

I have an 07 D-Max that I adore and have been using synthetics since the first oci. I DO NOT run synthetics long enough to be cost effective. Coming off the coldest winter in some time I question the use of dino oil year round. The lowest it got was -5°,usually it averages 25° or so,it doesn't...

Is it really the best thing going??? I remember a few years ago that heavy was "IN"! It was recommended by members here alot,no matter the need HDEO was the cure all. Being a newbie I couldn't catch on and had quite a conversation with a long gone member BlazerLT. We could not rationalize the...

OK I have only had my diesel a year and a half,been running a synthetic 5w40. Because I can't fully utilize a synthetic to make it cost effective I am gonna run dino oil. So I am not worried about the 15w40 oil for warm weather months,but I am concerned about winter oil. I see the benefit of...

I have 6 quarts of 0w40 and was trying to decide what it would be best used for? A) Run it in my wife's 03 Impala with a 3.8 that does alot of short trips and has oil burn off due to fuel dillution. ...................or............................. B) Pick up 4 more quarts and run it in my 07...
