Hey guys, Just picked up a 2024 Atlas Comfortline last week. I was shopping for a 3-row SUV for a little over year, it is not easy to find the right one as there are so many options available. I was waiting the right timing as I sold my CR-V in October instead of trading it in. (was offered...

Hey guys, I sold my Honda, I have no use of them anymore. I can "technically" use them on my motorcycle, but it would take almost a decade to use all of them. Local pick up in Newmarket/Barrie - Ontario, or willing to ship at buyer's expense. I have 9 oil filters for sale: 1x WIX 57356XP 1x...

Here is my latest report. I love this bike to death, one of the few bikes that I feel that I should keep it as long as I can. It's not the fastest or can't win any beauty contest, but it is one of the best options if you want one bike to do it all for the money. I paid 14k CAD out the door (it...

Hey fellas, Here is my latest UOA. Unlike the last year, I did not have a chance to take it to the track this year, so it is mainly daily driving and WOT few times a day. I did not put a lot of miles since I bought it, but when I do, it is mostly highway miles. No short tripping at all. No...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a 3-row SUV to replace my wife's CR-V before the end of this year. I'm not in a death rush as I'm looking for deals and can survive with the CR-V few more months to find a better deal. What do you guys think about the Durango R/T? Any Durango R/T owners here? I know...

Not sure if I did the right thing, but always wanted to have AWD hot-hatch. I wasn't used to changing cars that often, and never changed my car unless it was a necessity, until today. It's the first time I put a deposit on an MK8 Golf R just because I want to. I know it's probably the worst...

Hello, Just wanted to share UOA result. Mostly ridden on highways, and backroads, with minimal stop-and-go traffic. Currently running on Liqui Moly 4T 5w40 HC Street. Bought the bike brand new with 1 km on it. First oil change was at 1224 km at the dealer (Yamalube 10w40 - OEM filter) Second...

Hey guys, So here is my oil analysis report for my '21 GLI DSG. It's completely stock engine and transmission, with the exception of stock airbox mod, but still with OEM air filter. I bought the car brand new on Sep 21 with 20 miles on it. First oil (Factory) and filter changed at 1500 miles...

Hey guys, I wanted to share my open lapping session, first time taking the GLI to track at TMP, bought brand new Sep 2021. Before we start, sorry for the camera angle - that was a teachable point for me, will try the passenger seat area next time. Though it is the first time for the GLI...

Hey guys, I remember Honda and other Japanese manufacturers have different kind of factory oil with more moly, and they don't recommend early oil changes just because of that. This is my first brand new purchase, and also first non-japanese car. So my question is : Is it also applicable for...

Recommended interval is around 100k miles, but I wasn't happy with the overall performance of this drivetrain, and that's the reason why I got it done earlier. It's also holiday season, can't take my bike out for a ride, so it was the only thing in my "to-do" list for this weekend. As I was...

Hey fellas, I was wondering if it's just me, or do you also have an experience I regret buying the wife's CR-V in my sig at 86k miles, bought it last year with 79k miles and paid $15k CAD. I've been a Honda guy and I've been driving a Honda continuously since 2004 (and since 1998 if I add...

Hey guys, I was checking my owner's manual and could not see anything about 508.00 0w20 approval. This is what it says So far I have put about 1400 kms on my '21 GLI. It burned 0.3 qt oil in the first 300 kms, and I topped it off to max. Now I am at 1350 km and I found that it burned another...

Hey fellas, As some of you know, my Acura got totaled 2 weeks ago. Here is the link if you haven't seen it yet https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/under-the-valve-cover-09-acura-csx-107k.337207/post-5837115 I'm looking for brand new VW Jetta GLI DSG or slightly used (2017+) Audi A4 as a...

Okay, I recently changed spark plugs, I was planning to check valve adjustment at the end of oil change interval, but I had some time to kill this weekend. Also I've gotten a new tool (3/8" M12 Stubby and ratchet) so that I can try while working on my car. I bought this car in May 2017 at 63k...

I replaced factory spark plugs (Denso SKJ20DR-M11 iridium) today at 106k miles, 171k kms. It's a 2009 Acura CSX (Canadian specific vehicle) with K20Z2 engine, which is same as Acura RSX base. Replaced it with NGK. First cylinder (at the very bottom) to the top (4th cylinder). Another...

Hey fellas, I purchased a brand new 2019 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT and will pick it up on September 16. I sold my '18 Z650 a month ago, after 2 years and 10k miles of riding I thought it was time to upgrade with a bike that is more suitable for my body type and highway riding. I was actually...

Hey fellas, Normally I wouldn't have asked this if it was a car, I know color doesn't indicate its condition, but this is my first motorcycle and I am not sure if this is normal or not. As title says: I changed the oil and filter today. I tried my best to get the old oil out, waited around 45...

Hey fellas, Coming from road bike(currently own '17 Giant Defy Advanced 1), I really have limited knowledge of mountain bikes - I have no idea which fork is better/good enough. This is going to be my first MTB. I am on the fence between Trek Roscoe 8 and Stache 5, they are both on sale and...

I just saw this. I think Toyota needs to reprogram its ESP system especially when it's fully loaded What do you think?
