We purchased a new 2017 Niro EX on 2 Jan 2018. After a steady diet of Valvoline 0W-20 on a 10K OCI and 123200 miles with mostly Shell gas, I can report that this car is the most satisfying auto I have ever owned. :) Never had an issue or any parts replaced. The only thing we replaced are the...

What do you know about the GM and Coskata claim of making fuel for gal?

Closing the "Royal Purple at Wal-Mart!" thread is not enough. Please remove the post with the racial slur.

I hope it's OK to post the site for this OCA. There appears to be a lot of data for several '03 MY 6.0L PSD at this site. What I found interesting is the % of fuel in the oil. I drove my truck for 20 min on the hywy before I had an OCA and came away with < .5%. Anyway... here's the site 6.0L...

It appears that the new Ford 6.4 will have a long OCI due to the new Diesel fuel and CJ-4 oil requirements. I've seen data that the OCI might be in the range of 20K miles!!!! I wonder if we'll be able to extend the OCI with the current oil burners when the new fluids become available in Oct 06...

Used Z-Max three times (every 6 months) in my 96 Lin Conti with 105,356 miles. Changed oil every 3-4K. Now switched to Mo 1 0W-30 during the winter months w/o Z-Max. Any thoughts on the Z-Max oil, fuel and trans additive? I can say that the engine temp went down and the trans "seems" to shift...
