    Question about brake pad width

    New Brembo discs installed with the pads - old pads/discs were pulsating and after 110k, I didn't want to turn them. I'm asking where's there's such a difference in width between factory and these pads. I haven't - but may - look at another brand of pad to see if this is unique to the pads I bought.

    Havoline Smart Change bag issue

    2018 Charger SXT 3.6 - Quaker State Ult. Syn - 5W20 8,773/12,990 miles

    So, a question. I posted the report on another - vehicle specific - site and I made the statement that "it looks like the oil still has some life left in it", and was shot down. The person who questioned me asked where I got that idea from. Basically, TBN > 1, all additives look reasonable based...
