2014 Toyota Tundra 5.7 Schaeffers Supreme 9000 5w30 10k miles

[Sumo91]

Hey guys. Just wanted to share my Schaeffers UOA on my tundra to provide more info to other 5.7 owners. Didn't burn any oil. And runs significantly quieter than 0w20.

Good showing and still robust for a 10K mile OCI.

Thank you! Should be hitting 250k miles soon. That's the next big milestone. In about 4 or 5 years I should be at or near 500k at this rate.

Great result. love that 5.7.

Thanks for sharing!

Does Schaeffer's still use Antimony?

 

[JavierH19]

looks great.

Low wear metal rates; low contamination; inputs in very good shape.

Probably only another 250k or so miles left in that engine ...

What was the oil you used on your first uoa?

 

[Jordan_FX4]

Can’t ask for better results than that, that should have of miles to go!

On a separate note, was this an older batch/API rating of Supreme 9000 that you ran? The add pack looks quite a bit different than the SN+ and SP formulations. Thanks for posting your UOA!

If you’re saying you drive 40-50k a year why not run a 20k miles filter, run 10k, remove 2qts (topsider) and add 2 qts fresh and double your OCI? I bet the UOA would fine.

I believe this was an older batch? But I can't say for sure, I don't have the bottles.

I usually just stick with 10k oci. No particular reason I guess. But I'm probably about to swap over to High performance lubricants products and I might try 20k with them.

It was Schaeffers 0w20 9000

Have you always used 5w30 in your 5.7?

 

[aquariuscsm]

Are you going to stick with the W30 over the W20?

 

[Sumo91]

I used 0w20 at first, but switched to 5w30 the past 2 oil changes. It runs smoother with less valvetrain noise, I live in the south so it doesnt get cold enough to warrant 0w20. The only reason toyota recommends 0w20 is for CAFE regulations.

 

[Sumo91]

For sure! Might even move up in weight in the future

Do you happen to own a tundra as well? The 5.7 is truly amazing with gobs of low end torque. I would throw a supercharger on it if didn't require premium.

I'm pushing for the million mile mark! It still drives like it just rolled off the lot.

I have a 2018 tundra that I plan on keeping for a long time. Im gonna send a sample off to Blackstone on my next oil change. I currently use penzoil ultra platinum 0w20 with a kn filter, doing 5k mile oil changes.
