2012 Nissan Xterra 4.0 138,000 miles on unit Out: unknown dealer bulk & a micro guard filter In: 5.5 qts HPL 5W40 CK4 HDEO & Fram Endurance This will be my new vehicle as the 2010 crown victoria was totaled out by a drunk driver Super Bowl Sunday

Small update, we’ve had an unusual amount of rain today and so far the wet traction and handling feels very nice. Have hit multiple spots this week with standing water on the road and zero issue with hydroplaning, also the tires feel very surefooted at 60mph on rather curvy roads so not the most...

Well won’t be giving an update today on performance, the winter weather ended up being pure freezing rain, regardless of the tire nothing aside from chains or studded winter tires will perform well on pure ice

After looking it up 03B appears to be the Dayton TN plant

Not sure here’s the DOT numbers

Go with an all weather tire, it sounds like you don’t need a dedicated winter tire but do need something capable of handling its self during the occasional winter snow. I just had a set of Nokian Encompasses put on my car, have yet to test them but the level of siping compared to my all seasons...

Just got a fresh set of Nokian Encompasses put on the Crown Vic at a local DT. Hopefully will have some winter weather this coming Monday to put them to the test. They look pretty solid and should be hands down better than the all seasons I had on before.

About 500 miles on this full of HPL 5W40 HDEO (CK4) engine was cold

2010 Ford Crown Vic, 4.6 V8, 136,159 miles on unit, 9500 miles on this interval will be sending off a sample for UOA Out: HPL 5w40 HDEO (CK4) In: HPL 5w40 HDEO (CK4) Filter is a Fram Endurance 3614 which was reused with only 2k miles on it, will be doing a C&P eventually on the old one

135000 miles on the crown vic and 8400 miles on oil now, changed the filter and topped off a 1/2 qt pic is from it sitting all night

Cars at 7k miles with HPL CK4 5W40 no oil added and is not sitting level when I checked this morning gona take a sample and see how it’s looking

Primarily Amsoil, now HPL

My ecoboost is at 152k miles and I have only ran 15k +/- intervals, zero issues with the car and I’d be willing to wager it’s in just as good of shape as the 3k OCI club members

2010 Ford Crown Vic P7B, 131550 miles on unit No issues with transmission but I’ve put 30k on it since I got the car and was unsure of history. Fluid appears to be the factory fill because drain pain still had little yellow dipper in it indicating the pans never been dropped unless previous...

I was looking my FE over and it does look identical to an amsoil filter gona stock up on these while the going is good I guess

I have a FE3614 waiting for use and it appears the same as OPs

Could be but I have changed the oil, air filter and spark plug religiously, ran only ethanol free gas and ran it empty every season before storage. I figure Im close to the 100 hour mark

Toro recycler w/Honda GCV160 probably 100 hours on unit not really sure it’s the 3rd year using it previous 2 fills were Honda 10w30 current fill Mobil1 FS 0W40 (SN)

Unfortunately fixing it will still be cheaper than a new car

We’re at 4K miles on the second fill of HPL HDEO CK4, the Crown Vic is burning almost zero oil as the oil level doesn’t appear to have budged, current oil filter is a Fram Titanium with Wire mesh, it appears to be cleaning from what I can see slowly but surely here’s some updated photos
