    anyone else notice pennzoil platinum burns easier

    I put PP in my 2009 accord with 128K in hopes it will cut down on the consumption! Read on a couple Honda forums that the I-4 engine likes it. Time, miles, and my wife's driving habits will tell...KD

    Rotella 10w-30 for ATV

    I agree this topic got off subject. Thanks for the info on the Rancher. I chose it because it came highly recommended. I know engines as I have 30 year old dirt bikes that run better than new. From what I have found out so far, I think the rotella 10w-30 will be a fine oil for the winter and...

    Full Synthetic 15w40 Oils

    I just want to add (if not mentioned allready-I just skimmed thru the responses), that you stated "To see if I can lower my oil consumption.". Expect to see an increase in oil consumption when switching to synthetic. There are many reasons why an older engine consumes oil, some of them may be...

    VW TDI oil considerations

    What year is your Jetta? If it is still under warranty then you need to use what your owners manual tells you to use. This may be the limiting factor if you want to keep your warrnty intact. If it is out of warranty, then use what you want. It's hard to beat Mobil 1 delvac 5w-40. Mobil 1 Truck...
