    MK7 VW GTI Camshaft Scoring?

    My 2017 VW GTI has 120k miles on it. It went in for service to diagnose a loud rattle noise near the upper part of the engine that was originally thought to be due to a failed cam adjuster magnet. When replacing the magnets didn't resolve the issue, the valve cover was pulled and the cam...

    What is your standard OCI interval?

    I always use Synthetic oil and my standard OCI is 5,000 for all my vehicles. I figure this is neither too short or too long and is easy to remember. How about you?

    Hello all, I have been going through my truck changing all fluids. The plan was to change the front diff to Amsoil Severe Gear 75w90 (same as rear diff), but I ordered one too few quarts so I bought a quart of Valvoline to make up the difference. From my search on BITOG, it looks like this mix...

    I'm a bit puzzled about this oil's existence and I couldn't find any information about it on here. It's now being sold in my country as "The same great Castrol quality, now in smart bottles". What's so smart about the bottle exactly? On Castrol's site, they say this oil spec is for hybrid...

    Seems that FRAM shifted all their oil filter lines.

    Seems the old XG9972 is now the new Titanium filters which cost way more What are your thoughts on the new XG9972 on the right? I am not really impressed.
