Dealer recently did oil change and put the following in my '20 Audi Q3 which calls for 0w-20 508: G-E52-577-S0. According to an online seller, this oil is 0w-30. I'm doubtful it is correct oil and intend to follow up with a visit as soon as possible, but for now, can anyone verify what the...

This oil filter came in a kit of filters I bought online for my Kioti CK30 tractor and is not the right size. Vendor refunded the cost with me keeping the filter. I have no use for it and would like to give it to someone I know if it fits their vehicle. Any ideas, other than Kioti tractors?

Local Mercedes parts guy told me the other day that their bottled/labeled MB 5-40 oil was made by Mob 1. Does anyone have a clue what is diff about this oil?

Starting to look online at new tires for the MB and prefer tires that can be cross rotated as I believe they wear more evenly. Can some asymmetric be crossed when rotated? Any way to tell by looking at them on Tire Rack or Tire Discount web sites? Take this Aysmmetric for example...

Used car recently bought apparently had the engine and area around it hosed down with harsh chemicals. Silver parts of motor show white specks of corrosion. I'd like to spray those areas with something other than oil. Suggestions?

Followed directions by working a piece of clay flat to fit my palm, used the Meq Spray, and rubbed the clay lightly over the car surface, drying each section with a micro. No hand pressure, just...
