    Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20 availability

    Mobil has been having trouble for quite some time now. They blend their oils in TX and one of the plants went on fire in January (?) . I also think they were heavily affected (like a lot of manufacturing businesses) by the ice storms and power outages in early 2021. Only one of the local Toyota...

    Mazda skyactiv specific oil filters

    Filters that I have identified that are Skyactiv (no ABDV) specific: WIX 57002 / NAPA Gold 7002 FULL 2-OMD007 (NAPA Altrom ATM 2OMD007) MicroGard MGL57002 (*Rated for 5000 mi) I haven't had them pull the part, but I am assuming that the NAPA ProSelect 27002 also doesn't have an ADBV and this...

    What oil filters are you Mazda owners running on your 'Skyactive' 2.5's

    I have been using the WIX 57002 on my friend's '14 Mazda 3 and I just ordered some of these filters by FULL from the Naper (https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/ATM2OMD007). They are made in Thailand and out of the box definitely feel like they are a quality filter and don't have an ADBV as is...

    Post your latest oil change

    Oil was still super slick when I drained it. That was the first thing that comes to mind. Regardless of what I put in my cars though, I stick to a 5k / 6 mo OCI. It just works the best for me and I remember. I think I paid $13 for 5 qts after the MIR. The engine is in great shape and doesn't...

    Help stop my head from spinning - oil for newly purchased '21 Subaru Crosstrek 2.5L

    I dumped my '21 Corolla 2ZR-FAE oil at ~1100 miles. Toyota doesn't specify this, but there were visible wear metals when I dumped the filter. I would change it after the break-in period. The mileage is denoted in your manual. The Car Care Nut specifies to do this and states he doesn't care what...

    You guys know paint, so maybe you can give me a ballpark estimate...

    Get a quote from your shop guy. Little bit more complex shape on a bumper, but similar surface area.

    Why did you ask the question if you already knew the answer?

    You guys know paint, so maybe you can give me a ballpark estimate...

    For a bumper, I received a quote for 1100 with an OEM bumper cover and to repaint a spoiler, it was 400. I think it would probably be around 1000 for a quality job with a quality part.
