Vehicles in question are all over 100k miles. Just looking for an oil that's better for overall protection, including moisture, etc

In light of another thread about Champion plugs; would like to hear opinions on NGK Iridium plugs?

title sounds strange, I know, but I have a '11 4x2 ranger that my company installed dedicated snow/winter tires on about 6k miles ago. These tires are not studded at this time, but have holes for option to stud, so should I and *CAN* I have them studded at this time? Was going to change the...

but not after oil has been in engine for over 2k miles? I've noticed this for years; why is my engine noisey with any oil/filter for the first few minutes at start-up when the oil is new; i.e less then 2k miles. If the oil is getting near the 2.5k mile mark, noise stops completely, even on...

Getting ready to replace our roof, via insurance company, license insuranced roofers. We've had two estimates, two different companies come out and inspect and give us detail on their roofing materials. One uses GAF/Timberline; the other Owens Corning - so far, I like the company that uses the...

Here's the dilema! We currently have a 96 Chrysler twn/country caravan 3.8L V6, all bells/whistles, etc. Van has 125k miles, was given to us 2yrs ago when my grandfather died. Van is in prestine condition, and is more then pleasurable to drive and ride in, very very roomy, etc. In short, we...

And which engine/model is the best in reliability; ease of maintenance, and fuel mileage My Mom is dead-set on wanting a Hyundai Santa-fe; can only afford somewhere in the 04-07 model year ranges I understand the 04-06's are similar; and the '07 is a newer model design. Help me learn what is...

Company has approved to install these on their 4x2 ford ranger; I hope they're a decent tire. In the tire shop they look pretty beefy; but looks can be deceiving as well.

Just curious to see who all here likes this ATF, as it seems their oil isn't as well liked as their ATF.

Chrysler/Dodge dealer just finished replacing our transmission, thoroughly flushed radiator, etc and refilled with what they're calling a *universal green* coolant. I'm about to change the thermostat on this van, coolant is only 2k miles old, if that, so I'm going to keep all the coolant and...

Truck does get drove over 100 miles every time it's started, but typically only gets drove 2-3 times a month. In the past, when this truck was a dd, I changed the ATF every year with roughly 15k miles or so at each interval; fluid is VERY clean currently - but I haven't changed it in 4yrs...

old thermostat just came out of my 97 rodeo Antifreeze still past for being in excellent condition/prevention and the thermostat still looks new. Thermostat was from Japan, OEM Isuzu - which is the exact brand that just went back in. Simply changed everything out due to age. Truck has 200k...

5w-30...does it matter? this is a company truck, I have coupon maintenance rituals I have to follow...truck currently has 10k miles. First OCI, Greasemonkey put in exact viscosity requirement of 5w-20 2nd OCI, went to Goodyear because Greasemonkey doesn't rotate tires; they installed 5w-30...

Truck is an '11 ford ranger 2.3L, had 29 miles on it when I picked it up the other day; now has 340 miles. I've just been driving it normal, like I have every other vehicle, and being sure not to maintain same speed...it's seen a variety so far of 35-65mph with various rpm's, i'd say...

Seriously! No joking. Had a company 03 ford ranger 4x4k for over 300k miles, was given to me to drive at around 150k miles or so; from that moment on, truck terrified me in any type of slippery condition. Tire/tread type didn't matter, didn't matter how much weight was put in the bed, just...

And is slick 50 a good thing or no? Was interested in switching to this oil, but of what I've read of slick 50, don't think I like the idea.....if it has it in it

hey guys, I've used the steel washer with the internal rubber gasket on the bolt of my transmission pan. HOpe I'm making sense....it's a washer with a steel outer ring, rubber grommet/gasket on the inside and fits over the transmission refill bolt - my tranny has to be refilled from underneith...

heard of this oil years ago, but have just recently started seeing it again on shelves at Murdoch's ranching stores.

Picked up the wrong oil, meant to get the 5w-30, ended up bringing home 5w-20 Truck - 04 3.4L Tacoma Book specifies 5w-30 yr round Have used Castrol syntec in this truck since the day I bought it.

title about sums it up....what's the best filter that aids in preventing oil from draining down during cold weather
