Thank You. Ordered from Walmart and picked up. With tax and rebate it ended up being $16.00 per 5qt bottle. Not too bad at all for Castrol Edge.

Took it to the dealer today and they did a full diagnosis for me and for free which suprised me, but I am not complaining. It is the catalytic converter and their quote is $1750. That is high but not aggregiously expensive like I thought it would be. However I will probably do it myself, after...

Ok here is some live data from the O2 sensors, thanks https://www.dropbox.com/s/bbc91hmh0v3o982/IMG_5113.MOV?dl=0

I will run the live data tomorrow and report back. Thanks again sir.

I think there might be, but according to the Special Coverage 15810 it is the cat I posted above that generally goes bad.

I have a dealer credit so its only going to cost me $40 to have them do a full diagnostic. Yeah I have a $50 scan tool that can do some live data, but If I am going to shell out north of $1000 I want to be 100% sure it is the cat and not something like a cracked exhaust manifold (doubtful). That...

I think you just sealed it for me, THANKS! Yes I do have 2.4 Ecotec garbage engine. I had a cracked exhaust manifold at 80,000 when they did the warranty work and replaced it. I would not be the least bit surprised if it is broke again since this is a common problem on the 2.4 Ecotec. I am...

Thanks for the replies guys, I take impeciable care of my vehicles and even though mine has 159,000 miles on it, I had the oil consumption fixed done by GM at 80,000. They replaced the pistons, rings, head gasket, timing chain, guides, etc. so there should be a good amount if life left in that...

Well I am at 159,000 miles, so I am pretty far over, but I guess it couldn't hurt to try.

On my mygmc.com account it says my Terrain is covered under "Special Coverage 15810" which according to that is 10yrs/120,000 miles. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10144226-9999.pdf

So my GMC Terrain has a P0420 code. I replaced both oxygen sensors but that is not fixing it. There is an extended warranty on the cat for these vehicles, but of course mine is now just out of that windows. I always go OEM but the cheapest I can find for the OEM cat is around $600 shipped...

As the above poster said, factory paint job is cured when it leaves the factory so you are good to go. After market paint jobs like after an accident need to gas out for 30-90 days before you apply any wax or sealant.

It's not just me, here is a post form a few years ago... https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/maxlife-stinkiest-atf.267558/

lol maybe, I did have an extremely bad case of covid. Didn't have to go to the hospital but got close.

No, I guess I could shoot them an email. But I really don't care much, I just found it interesting.

I just did two drain and fills on my GMC Terrain with MaxLife ATF and the first thing I noticed with both gallons is that it no longer has that awful smell that MaxLIfe ATF is known for. Just wondering if anyone else here has noticed this? I checked the date stamp on the bottle and were both 2022.

2011 GMC Terrain 4 cyl. 45,000 miles on fluid out: 4qt Valvoline MAXLIFE In: 4qt Valvoline MAXLIFE no serviceable filter Will do another drain and fill next week.

Easiest: GMC 2011 I4 Terrain, cartridge filter on top of engine, drain plug has built crush gasket that doesn't need replacing. You can use a fluid extractor and not even have to crawl under the car if you want to. Great for apartment dwellers who don't have access to ramps or a driveway. Worst...

Start light, If nothing else works, then Citrol 266. That stuff is magic, but get the regular version. Not the low VOC version. Also the company states they don't recommend you use it on clear coat or single stage paint. But it wont hurt anything as long as you don't leave it on too long and...

Two cars here, One with Akenbono ASP on front, and ACT on back. The other has Raybestos Element 3 (EHT) pads on front and stock on back. I had plenty of stock pad left but like you my rotors were warped and causing vibrating. I took a change and bought the cheapest rotors I could find on eBay...
