I know this is an oil form but this community is full of good experience. I have a 2006 tahoe with 5.3, looks to have a massive oil leak behind the bell hsg, most likely crankshaft seal, or that plate that holds the seal on this engine. Location Tampa Fl. I have oil everywhere. Loosing a quart...

Looking at the 2022 2.7 silverado 4x4. Any real life experiences here. Milage seams to suffer from the 2 wheel drive model. I do tow up to 6k but reviews are positive on that. Looking for overall satisfaction, towing and gas milage info Thanks in advance

Another marketing gimmick. I would rather see full syn myself but what ever. I guess this is still the 10k mobil 1

I just ordered 7 Champ XL, 3 for my chevy 5.3,s and 4 for both my daughters elantras. I was surprised there made different. The center core on filters for the tahoe looked similar to a Purolator, the center core on the elantra filter looked like a a/c delco s plastic cage. A little disappointed...

So I poured in havoline pro DS 5w 30 in my 2006 Tahoe w/227k on the clock. I like the fact that 1 Box filled it. I did spill a little(Box corner hit the fan shroud when pouring). First impression same as any other full syn. Will probably use it again 22.97 for 6 quarts good with all the price...

Ok my Tahoe just started making cold start up noise for a few seconds. Same engine noise I get with a new oil change before the filter fills with oil for those first few seconds. Oil filter sits where oil won't drain out so it shouldn't be a faulty Ani drain back valve in my opinion. Filter is a...

My Daughter just bought a used 2019 4 runner with 22k. It calls for 0w 20 oil. I believe it specifies synthetic. She bought it at a toyota dealer, they changed the oil per the carfax and gave her years of free oil changes. My question would the toyota dealer have used synthetic ? Going forward...

Looking at the specs on a pro tec for 1.36 And a wix 4.68 Looks like exactly same. Any thoughts? Well I just ordered a few pro-tecs. Will cut one open and compare it to the used wix I pull off. It may be hard to compare media but description is the same. Wish I had ordered 1 wix to cut open, but...

Now that I have a few years worth of Quaker state synthetic hm 5w 30 oil due to a great walmart clearance. Anybody have specs on this ?

Looking for a Brand recommendation for a MAF sensor. No I'm not going OEM, selling the car once I get it running good again. 2005 BMW 325i. Ones I'm looking at, Walker, SKP and Beck/Arnley. $66 to $74 range on RA. Better question is what to stay away from.

Been using Mobil 1. The grease is a light pink after I'm guessing mixing with water or separating like it does in the grease gun. T.S. grease has caught my eye. Traveller Marine & Off-Road Calcium Sulfonate NLGI #2. Does not say for wheel bearings but has the NLGI #2 rating. Has/Does anyone use...

My Daughter just bought a 2020 elantra. My question is from what I find it recommends 5w-20 or 5W-30. What I find strange is most other manufacturers stay in the same weight category. 0w 20 5w-20 example. Any idea why Hyndia is ok with a 20 or 30 Wright oil ? It is used with 40k and will be...

I was running Mobil 1 0w 40 then went to Castrol 0w 40. After they both lost BMW LL01 I stuck with Castrol edge OW 40. Well yesterday I picked up 5w 40 Castrol euro formula that meets the spec. Its made in USA unlike there 0W 40 oil made in Belgium. Some might say it doesn't matter but it's for...

Anyone know for sure if super tech ATF is made by Warren like there oils. Warren gives so much info on there product. Looking at Dex 111 atf. Don't want the thinner dex v1

What you all think about lucus trans fix ? Its going in a slipping BMW 325i (e46) w 190k on the clock. Sometimes before warm it won't even move. After it warms up it gets much better. Car only worth about 2k. Transmission rebuild more than that.

I can get kirkland full syn or chevron supreme for 12.50 for 5 quarts. Supreme 5w 30 is syn blend,there 10w 30 is not. Not sure why 10w 30 is not a blend. Kirkland is full syn. Engine is 2006 5.3 chevy 200k +.. change every 7k. Just looking for overall opinions on what you would run in florida...

I change oil in my daughter's 2016 jeep patriot 2.4L. She has 60+k on it. It calls for 5w-20. Anyone running 5w-30 in there,s ? We live in Fl, no real cold weather. All my other vehicles call forc5w 30. Just easier buying all one weight. Kirkland 5w 30 best deal around

Any good suggestions for a carb cleaner in a bottle for an outboard ? Mine is oil injected but I do also mix a small amount of oil in my gas for extra protection about 200 to 1. I'm running real rough at idel and hard to start.

I have noticed browsing supertech/kirkland 5w 30 and 10w 30 UOA on here many/most have low/single digit wear numbers. I keep wanting to see low Mobil 1 & QSUD numbers as those have been my go to oils. A few others like Magnatec often has low wear also. I have tried kirkland once. I may just...

Most of us know advanced auto cleared out their gas truck. I didn't get any. Went to walmart to get some for next oil change. None in stock any grade. I go to shell website and its still listed. Is it done ? I liked it.
