I meant July not June, my bad.

Received a Pep Boys flier in the mail today and the first week of June they will have 5 qts of Valvoline conventional and HM oil on sale with a Fram extra guard filter for $14.99 after a $10.00 rebate. Good deal or not? SP

I'm struggling with the same issue on my 02 Suzuki Aerio SX. Last oil change at 162,000, the oil was looking pretty nasty. I've been diligent about changing it at 7.5K per the manual. Always used name brand oil. Bought the car brand new so I now it's owner pretty well. Up till this oil change...

The best diesel oil is any name brand on sale, works for me. SP

My Pepboys had mostly NextGen Maxlife 5w-20 left, so I bought twelve quarts for $1.06 each.

I wouldn't worry about it, my 1916 Ford model t will never see anything over 1800 rpms plus it doesn't have a filter. It needed it first engine rebuild in 1966. Your modern water cooled oil filtered engine should be fine at low rpms.

OCI must be the most confusing part of owning a car that I know of. For me it's pretty simple, open the vehicles owner manual and look under the scheduled maintenance. 99.9% of owners would use the regular not severe schedule. Done. I own two Japanese vehicles and both state 7500 miles oil...

I've been busy

On sale for $9.99 per gal any good for my Duramax? Rated for diesel applications Thanks, SP

I run 15W-40 of whatever major brand is on sale, OCI's are at 7500 miles on my 07 Duramax. I tow a 8K TH loaded all over the country no issues.

I'm with the poster who buys any brand oil on sale. My truck has yet to ask me which brand I'm using. Not on the synth band wagon either, all my vehicles run great with good old dino. Who started the rumor that oils are only good for 5K miles? Neither of my three vehicles recommend those oil...

Why waste the money for synthetic oil? Today's dino oil is excellent. I've been a lurker of BITOG for a couple of years and have wondered when the memo came out that today's dino oil is only good for 5K miles. All my cars are fairly new and they say 7500 miles for OCI. I have a 02 Aerio SX...

Need some advice and how to tame oil consumption in my 2002 Suzuki Aerio 2.0L with 153K on it. Bought it new and I've maintained it per the manual (oil, filter, brakes etc). I gave it to my daughter when we bought my wife a new car. With that it's using oil probably about a quart every 1500...

My 07 LBZ has 89K on it and I've only run 15w-40 (dino) in it since new. Below 65K it burned a quart or more every 7500 miles (my OCI) but now has settled in. My last change saw no oil consumption at all. I drive it work on occasion (30 mile round trip) and also use it to pull a 7K toyhauler...
