Just a quick update. Going to get the edge and ran across the PU so I got that and used my royal purp filter instead the fram ultra or dealer and the Kia likes it!! It's back quiet again. I guess it disagreed with the pp since I've ran ultra for so long. Feels and sounds great though.

So going outta town tomorrow, probably gonna go with the edge titanium so i can fly down the highway (lol), i have a fram ultra sitting in my gARAGE, i also have a Royal Purple filter, which would be better? and a buddy of mine told me for the way my driving habits are i should try 5-40/0-40...

So with the longer intervals, and me keeping my foot in the pedal (lol) I'd assume the castrol edge titanium (gold bottle) would be best option? Or if the only choices were edge titanium, royal purple, QSUD, M1 EP and PP Which would you choose? Those are readily available at a local walmart...

Originally Posted By: Pesca You did not tell us what is the change interval and what is your annual mileage (also we could calculate it). Like Weemay wrote, any oil that meets SM 5w-20 is enough in your car, even conventional oil. Depending of your OCI and your annual mileage, you can shorten...

Originally Posted By: KCJeep I used Edge gold bottle in ours for a while and it was the top tier syn that most impressed me. I gave up on it when it got scarce, but now it seems to be readily available again. M1 5w30 EP would be a great choice. And I don't think the current PP is in anyway...

I'd QSUD really good? I haven't used it since like 2006 or 07 in a Mazda.....how's the oxidation levels? For those 100mph spurts (lol). It seems like PU is hard to replace considering the additives it has.I used to swear by edge titanium but PU changed that after a uoa study I read up on. Also I...

As the title states, looking for a recommendation for my 2012 kia optima. I'm currently at 82,000 miles now. I used to run the edge titanium pre 40k miles. Then went to Penn ultra pre rebrand and a couple times after. Now ultra had become scarce in my area so can't decide what to go to next...

Yes my driving conditions are the same, doesnt really fluxuate. and abt 6+ tanks. my normal work commute has been dramatically different. and in this texas summer heat, AC is on full blast while im driving. so the conditions never really change.

So like i stated on my 1st thread i posted here, after getting suggestion. i switched to 5W 30 castrol Edge Titanium, instead of the normal 10w 40 edge in my 08 Pont G6 and my gas mileage went down considerably, was that normal to happen since i have been running 10 40 for so long? also been...

Also, after only a couple of days driving, ive noticed a considerable drop in MPG. is that normal from switchign back to a thinner oil?!?!

Really? I wouldnt have thought M1-HM was better than edge titanium, not for hard/fast driving anyway, and 0w30 would be acceptable with 145k+? also has anyone seen this report http://www.amsoil.com/lit/g3115.pdf

Anyone recomend a different brand of oil other than castrol titanium, and amsoil. i dirve hard n fast (lol) .

and my gas mileage has bee ncrap for along time now lol. and thanks for the welcome!!!!

ive been running 10 40 since 100k if i remember right, i push it hard, and do alot of highway, outta town driving, but i cant really remember when or why i switched, but i think my last 8 oil changes have been 10 40. but i just went and got 5 30, and a K&N filter.

So i normally run castrol edge in my 08 G6 and my 01 accord, and run the edge titanium in my 2012 optima, so i wanted to switch to titanium for my G6, i normally run 10w 40, but at my local dealer the only thicker titanium they had (thaT I saw) was 20w 50, and i felt it would be to thick, the...
