Howdy fellas, my sister stopped by and said she needed an oil change. Figured I’d post it. 2021 Hyundai Elantra SEL - 76k miles 8K OCI. Oil change was done at Tirediscounters so I’m not sure what 0w20 they used. In - I used STP 0w20 & STP XL filter. Looks darn near perfect for 8k, laser...

This one was from the previous OCI on my 2000 Buick Century w/ 64k. Used for commute 54 miles each way all highway. Maxlife syn blend 5w30 and 5,400 miles 3 month OCI. I got ahead of myself and didn’t take an intact pic with the full date code, but some of it is there 😂 Fiber end caps were...

Hey guys, this was on my 2000 Buick Century with 64k on it. It’s my commute car which is all highway 54 miles each way. Ran Maxlife Blend 5w30. Put a Prime Guard on it for this run. Note: this filter started leaking the last 1,000 miles or so which is the 2nd Fram EG to do that in the last...

Cartridges aren’t as exciting but figured I’d post it anyway. Came of the Wife’s Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.6. 6,250 miles and almost 8 months. Used Supertech 0w20.

My first time C&P so be gentle 😂 but I’m all for advice for the future. @53' Stude has inspired me lol Picked these up a couple weeks ago at Rural King, but looks like the date code is 2022 so these might sit on the shelves for a while. I do like the plastic over the end while in the box to...

If they were side by side on the shelf and you were doing 5k oil changes which would you choose? I’ve never used prime guard before. I would use them for my work car, a 2000 Buick Century. I drive 50 miles each way all highway, and I do my oil changes every 5k-ish miles. My Rural King has them...

I found 2 Mopar oil filters I bought in March 2021 for my 21 Ram Rebel w/ Hemi. They have been in my non heated garage but have been in a ziplock bag the whole time. What’s the consensus on shelf life? Good to run or trash them? Thanks! Edit: Actually I was wrong. From the date code they are...

After my stash of OEM Mopar filters are done I’m looking for a good 99% 20 micron filter to start using. It was going to be Fram Ultras but it seems the build quality has gone down hill as of late. It’ll be for both newer vehicles. 2021 Ram and 2021 Jeep that get OCI’s of no more than 5-7k...

Picked up a 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis with 87,000 miles. I’ve had a few of these over the years. Seems pretty well taken care of, lady passed away a couple years ago and hasn’t been driven much. I’m going to give it a once over with all new fluids, filters , tune up etc. As far as the oil...

How well do big name Extended Protection oils (Valvoline EP, Castrol EP) etc, and “premium” boutique oils like Schaeffer stack up to one another? The EP oils are supposed to be the top tier of their respective brands having supposedly more additives and better base stocks to be able to go the...

Got these filters as a Christmas present. I told them either Wix or Napa Gold. I opened them up and all 3 filters had the black spray paint on the base. I guess the question is, is this a non factor or is this gonna be harmful to the engine? I’m assuming that paint isn’t designed to hold up to...

My Wife got me an early Birthday present. S&W model 66. I was originally wanting a model 19 classic. But it was hard to pass up the $200 LE discount on this one so. I haven’t had a wheel gun in years, this is the start of expanding my collection with a few of them.

Bought it in December 2020. Current mileage is 38k Repairs: -front sway bar links (warranty) -coolant tank leak (warranty) -driver seat bracket (warranty) -head liner rattle (warranty) -front rotor warped (self) Maintenance: -OCI every 6k -Air filter at 20k about due again. -Cabin air filter...

Traded in my 19 Bighorn for this beauty. I needed a truck with the tow package and fell in love with this one. Used car prices are insane, they gave me 6k more than I paid for it a year and a half ago as it was used then. I also got 8k off Msrp.

My 2000 Buick Century 3.1 24k miles. My Wife’s other grandmother passed away and we received it from her estate. I decided to make this my commute car. It has been kept in a heated garage it’s entire life. I’m going to replace the tires since they’re original. I also bought new hoses and...

We got her an early Christmas present. My Wife was tired of her 2016 Santa Fe sport after 5 1/2 years and 95k miles. It was paid for so why not? After searching and driving vehicles for a couple of months we settled on this. The options she insisted on was the memory driver seat and heated...

1994 Buick with 63,400 miles 2.2 3sp auto that's been in my Wifes family since new. I took ownership to use as a spare/work vehicle. This weekend it's going to get fluid and filter changes. Belts and hoses and a set of plugs that I posted about last week. After a long drive the alternator...

Whats up everyone, Picked up a 94 Buick Century Custom 2.2L with 63k on it. It was originally my Wife's Grandmothers who purchased it new. It then became my MIL's spare car but she never really drove it and it sat in the garage most of the time. It's the ultimate old lady car that is white with...

Hey everyone, For my new to me Hemi, what's your opinion on these two filters. I've heard Mopar is made by Purolator correct? Do they suffer from the same tears? The Napa's I know are rebadged Wix filters. The price of the Mopar is around $10 and the Napa is $8. I plan on doing 5-6k OCI's...

2013 Kubota 3800 Out - Kubota 10w30 & OEM filter . 2 year 200 hour OCI. In - Same
