    2021 Alfa Romero Gulia

    Good afternoon. I Recently and by recently I mean 4 hours ago bought a 2021 Alfa Romero Gulia with only 7k on the clock. It does not have an owners manual with it. I was wondering what oil this vehicle requires, or what people suggest running in it. It has the 2.0 Turbo engine in it and calls...

    17 Imprezza 2.0

    My girlfriend just picked up a 2017 Subaru imprezza woth 40,000 miles on it. It has the flat 4 engine. It's still under warranty and Subaru recommends full synthetic for 6,000 miles.

    Pennzoil Ultra Platinum No Dexos?

    Just got my shipment of Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, and I noticed there isn't any Dexos labels on it anymore. Is there a formulation change that does not meet Gen2? Or is that Ultra is almost considered Unicorn tears so they didn't want to shell out the money for certification?

    Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0w40 SRT

    I recently became an advisor at an FCA dealership, but I still have my Cruze. I can get the 0w40 SRT oil fairly reasonable being an employee. Obviously this oil isn't Dexos approved. I'm considering it because it's easily available and very reasonable in price and I don't have to order it or go...

    Gumout multi system tune up

    I am curious as to who uses this in the crankcase either continuously or as the flash before oil changes. I am only interested in the crankcase aspect. Those of you who do use it what are your methods? How much do you use? And how long do you use it?

    AMSOIL SIGNATURE SERIES 0W30

    I can get this through my soon to be ex-work for $46 for 5 quarts for my Cruze. I do want to do extended intervals. In your opinion is it worth it or just use M1EP or P4 Ultra that I may find/ have? Part of me wants to just to feed the itch to try it out. But the logical part of me is asking why?

    Ok I use P4 ultra 5w30 in my Cruze. I was working an hour from home at an Audi Dealership, averaging about 900 miles a week give or take.

    "White Oil??"

    Maybe this is the wrong place for this post. Maybe not. But I just saw a headline about white oil being the downfall of OPEC. What exactly is white oil. What is it used for, and is this new technology in the auto world?

    Havoline pro DS

    I cannot seem to find this oil anywhere it seemed O'Reillys is the only place I could get it. But now they don't even have it in my area is it being phased out? Or what. Is this the same situation for everybody else?
