    Best oil for Buick 3.8 that sees low miles.

    No, they have not been replaced as far as I know. It does not have Dexcool in it anymore, but I do smell coolant from time to time. I figure im going to have to do it sooner or later.

    Best Oil For new-to-me 2004 Volvo XC90

    thanks for the advice. I like sticking with Mobil 1 since I can buy it around $4 a quart through work. Should I run the MMO or ARX to clean up the varnish or will the MB1 take care of that?
