Drive on. Check back in 20k. I bet they’ll look fine.

Let it go. You gave her the car….and it’s her responsibility. This looks like a teachable moment?

I love your photo! Is that a rusty truck bed?

Thanks very much for the correction. It’s only the s54 that has that problem. Yet I think of them as coming from the same engine design. I wonder why the m54 doesn’t have the rod-bearing problem? Thanks again

This sounds brilliant. Really. If you get another 60-100k, it’s all good.

Rod-bearings at 60k. Maintenance item.

Looks very good. Check back in 10k.

I’ve got a 20yr old timex expedition, $20 when I bought it. Some batteries and two bands, that’s it. However I do appreciate the craftsmanship of beautiful watches.

Looks very good.

NASCAR is impossible to watch because there are 5-6 Tv providers for the races and it just isn’t worth the hassle. Some good racing, especially the road and short tracks. But the 400-500 races are really just waiting for a wreck or the last 2 laps. I don’t have the patience.

What vehicles do you use this for?? Thanks

First World problem.

Looks very good! I’d just run Valvoline Restore and Protect 5w-30 at 5k OCI’s and call it a day.

Good for you! How many miles and how many clutches have you had to replace?

Double that OCI!

Mileage on OCI?

This sir is a very good post. Concise and with all the important information. Thank you!

I’ve been an “oil sale opportunist” since the 90s. I have save thousands by looking for deals. I also change my own oil. Yet I haven’t purchased any new oil for at least 4 years. Go lots in inventory.

Interesting. What vehicle do you drive ? And how many miles a month.

This^^^^^. It’s the hassle factor for me too. For the last 20+ yrs I’ve reused oil filters 2 or 3x OCI depending on the mileage. Usually 15-20k miles. I’ve got high miles on all my vehicles. But I always use synthetic oil.
