Hello everyone. Current situation with in-laws 2013 Nissan Quest. 3.5 liter with 79,000 miles. Never had cvt fluid changed. I was told it's bucking and not accelerating properly. I drove it to my house and confirmed definite transmission problem. CEL on. Hooked up my scanner and found P1778. I...

I need to replace my marine starting battery. Due to incentives and coupons etc... I went to Advance Auto to see what they have. In stock they had two starting batteries in the size I need. Both had a date code of 8/16. Is that too old or too long to have been sitting on a shelf. Does that...

July of 2015 my daughter bought a new Honda Civic, 4 cylinder, with the CVT. When I did the first oil change last year I noticed the bottom of the transmission appeared to be oily. Oil wasn't dripping but it appeared oily. There is a small black metal plate I would call an inspection plate...

I just picked up a couple jugs of QSUD 0W20 for my Tundra. 2013 with the 4.6. I do some towing and its pretty much my daily driver. The last several oil changes have been Mobil 1 EP 0W20. I bought the QS just to try it out. Its cheaper and had a rebate. I also read the forum from 540 rat. I...

The local Fisher Auto parts store has Amalie Elixir synthetic 75W90 gear oil for 7.99 a quart. I was thinking of using this in the transfer case and front and rear diffs on my 2013 Tundra. I currently am running Valvoline SynPower and this stuff is 2 to 3 dollars less per quart. I was reading...

A friend of mine recently acquired a 2004 Wrangler with the 4 liter 6 cylinder engine. This engine has 270,000 miles on it. I believe suggested oil is 10w30. With this many miles would 10w30 still be the best oil? Climate is central NY where temps range from well below zero to mid 90s. This...

Yesterday I bought a used 2013 Crestliner Fishhawk 1600. It has the Mercury 60 hp ELPT four stroke on it. Prior to buying it I did some research as to recommended oil and read that many use a 25W40. When I picked it up I spoke with the tech who went over the boat with me. I asked him what oil...

Last year I bought a used Nissan 9.9 two stroke outboard. It was made in 1998. I used it once as I only planned on using it for lakes with 10 hp limits. Normally I use my Evinrude 15 hp. I just changed the gear lube and it was milky. I am hoping water mixed in only due to bad washers on the...

Well I was at Wal Mart today for some marine gear oil and noticed Royal Purple 0W20 five quart jugs clearanced for 21.00. Regularly 37.00. I bought 2 of them. Never used it before but for that price I figured I'd try it out. Going in the Corolla soon and maybe the Tundra.

I own a 2001 Kawasaki Prairie 300 4x4. I bought it new and the only oils I have used have been Kawasaki brand 10W40 ATV oil and Valvoline 10W40 ATV oil. I have been reading how people who own ATV's without a wet clutch use all sorts of different oils. My question is should I continue to use ATV...
