2016 Toyota Yaris 250,000 miles 4quarts HPL pcmo 10w20 with a wix 51516 2007 Chevy Tahoe 220,000 miles Castrol gtx 5w30 with a acdelco ph48

$3.69 for 90 octane e0 at Buc’ees today. Only thing I use in the es300

Mobil one 0w40 for 5k

Next filter arrived. Seems like good quality made in USA. Only thing I don’t like is the Adbv looks like rubber to me. The rest looks high quality and for $2.50 on RA it’s pretty good

I plan on cutting the filter to take a look at 5k (290,000 mi) may try the wix next.

I had thought of that. But the filter thread adapter made the project much easier and I think less prone to leaks but time will tell on that. As a bonus the Donaldson filters 99% at 15um

I keep an eye on the oil light and I pre filled the filter held almost exactly a quart. I do plan on changing the filter every 5k probably going to find something cheaper than the Donaldson to use regularly. My motivation is mostly the hilarity of it all 😂 I probably have the only Camry with a...

I’ve learned to change the oil with it cold. Burned a few holes in long sleeve shirts. My original plan was to point it straight down but that was as close as I could get. I used that filter because it’s the same as my ford truck. And had a few at home already

It fits perfectly in the space. It’s also about the same distance from the exhaust as it would be in the original location. But the oil light goes out much faster like this

Huge filter fewer oil changes ? It’s a 2.2 with 285,000 miles burns 1qt every 8-900 miles. I was thinking change the filter and just top off the oil every 5k since it’s gonna get 5 new quarts of oil by the next 5k anyway why drain it?

The pro tec 51751 is 2.50$ on rock auto. Might be worth buying to cut open

I would like to know the results. for now I am doing HPL diesel 5w30 with a champ xl filter every 10k

My other car a 97 Camry has done almost 300k on providence semi syn 10w30 and protec oil filters. But I would like to take better care of the 1999 its much nicer. Im giving the 97 to my brother and will start driving the 99 full time soon. When I do a UOA I will post it

No leaks and it burns about 8 ounces in 5k miles I think im going to go with a fram ultra after I use up my wix stash got a case of 12 for 25$ a while back

Sounds like I need to do a UOA before anything else

I also hav seen they make a 6.5 quart oil pan for the 5sfe. My main goal is to extend oil drain to around the 15k mark been doing it at 5 and that puts me at slightly more than one oil change a month. My plan was to either use a frantz bypass or buy the larger oil pan and increase capacity

as the title says has anybody tried it? My car for reference is a 1999 camry 5sfe with 125,000 miles I’ve only had it a couple months but I drive 60-70k miles per year mostly highway and I’ve been thinking bypass filtration might be worth it in my situation
