If my memory serves me correctly, they changed the gearing (manual transmissions in particular) around that time.

2014 Chevy Cruze, I ended up getting the oil changed a bit sooner than expected because the ac compressor went out. And I had an odd ball quarts of SuperTech that I found in the truck of my wife’s car that went in with the Kirkland I had switched her car to. Oil change mileage - 189225 Oil...

A friend of mine just bought one (CC, 4wd, 2.7t) and I’ve been impressed with it so far. Granted, I’ve only ridden in the truck a couple of times as we’ve tried different golf courses but it doesn’t seem to struggle to motivate and he seems to average low 20’s mpgs. I did recommend 5k oil...

I was quite happy with the 2008 Jetta I had that had the 2.5L and a 5 speed manual transmission. I had come from a 96 Jetta with the 2.slow and a 5 speed transmission and I got basically the same fuel mileage (28 ish mostly highway miles) and really enjoyed the extra power the 2.5 had over the...

Oil change on my 2010 Passat with the 2.0T TSI. Oil change came a tad early as it was extra maintenance time. I pulled the intake to do a carbon cleaning, new plugs, new alternator pulley, new diverter valve because one of the rubber seals had busted, and I ended up replacing the intake manifold...

Curious, have you done any oil analysis’s on the API SP revision of the Leichtlauf? Judging by the dates on their spec sheets and the VOA post, I’m assuming this wasn’t the API SP one. Asking out of curiosity. My AAP has a deal on LM and when looking at the jug I noticed their stock was API SP...

I agree 100%. I never understood the argument my cousin was trying to make because I would argue what you’re saying. He had the forums to back up his decision and at the end of the day, it’s his vehicle. My comment was poorly written and only meant to convey that people buy into shear...

Lmao yeah. My cousin swore that T5 Rotella 10-30 kept the injectors happier that T6 5w40 and multiple on the 6.0 forums said the same thing.

This is second info from my cousin, but he told me the 6.0 Powerstrokes liked the 10-30 better because it was more shear stable that the 5w-40 oils and the injection systems was happier.

For me it was a 2010 Chevy Equinox. Seats were comfortable (leather) the rest of the interior was cheap rattling plastic, and non of the controls were intuitive. The biggest issue I had with it was the drivetrain. The 2.4 ecotec was gutless. The sticker said 22 city/32 highway. Best mileage I...

I’m thinking double EPA estimates with SAE 50 racing oil

Helping my little brother with his oil changes on his Corolla, he quit buying the 5 quart jug’s because every time he came do for an oil change he’d always forget to bring the left over oil. This led to an oil change with 4 different brands of 0w20.

I was looking around PDS on Castrol’s website and I saw that the latest API SP 5w40 a3 version had a higher KV100 of 13.5. Would that put Castrol in the 5w40 conversation?
