    IVD CLEANING

    Did IVD cleaning on 2019 Crosstrek. I used the hose from the Berryman IVD cleaning kit, which I used on another car and Seafoam. It worked out great, plugged the adapter into Vacum port and dipped the hose into the can. I did not have to rev the engine, the reducer from Berryman works.

    This is the 3rd UOA all oils purchased at Walmarts Pennzoil first, RP 2nd and last Valvoline all 0w20. I really liked the Valvoline over the RP, it had the same smoothness, and cheaper. I did not like Pennzoil. Any thoughts on this report?

    HPL and TGDI engines

    I have search high and low and cannot find a single thread with someone using HPL or Amsoil oil in a TGDI engine for an extended oil change interval. Is it only possible on PI engines.

    BJs gas

    I don’t know if this is the right section … sorry if it not. Since gas prices are so high I use BJs gas it is not TT. I have a 2020 equinox w/1.5t. I’m using premium gas, my thinking is it will burn better and I get it for about the same price as TT regular gas. I do a IV cleaning every 10-15000...

    2020 Equinox 5645 miles, 24% on OLM

    I haven’t seen any regarding the GM 1.5T so I did one. This uoa has LM MOs2 in it. the oil time was 4.5 months and it 70/30 hwy/local driving. I refilled with Royal Purple 0w20 and STP synthetic, will do uoa on that. I will follow with Fram oil for 5k miles using no additives
