Amsoil Engine Tear Down Pics

[Jpc1623]

I’d like to see tear downs of TGDI engines doing extended oil changes with Amsoil to prove their point of 15000 miles on TGDI engines. I searched Amsoil reviews on web site, internet, nothing.

Look up Amsoil API rating someday.

I think it's the same type of engine. I don't know the OCI so it may not be that impressive.

After 314k miles it's always impressive. Deposits tend to accumulate. Even 104 3k oil changes is impressive in it's own right

314k miles. Amsoil only since the first change.

Buster you know this is a fake photo… Just like those fake photos of some women they post online….

Sounds like might have been an improper balance of seal swell. FWIW, M1 0W-40 stopped the valve cover leak on my M5 too.

A lack of failure really isn't a preponderance of proof though. I used a variety of different gear oils in our Expedition diff, towed heavy with it while not being kind to it, never had a failure. I don't consider that a testament to the quality of those gear oils

I know the load of 10,000HP is nuts, but it's also only for 3-4 seconds. I'd think that again, the 24hr cars might be a better benchmark, due to the extended use, but OTR truck diffs are another thing to consider, given the load they are required to deal with, for long periods of time. That's why my current stock of gear oil is Delvac 1 75W-90, which was used at the heavy truck dealer my buddy worked at.

Very valid points. To unleash 10k HP in seconds and not blow up a rear diff. Imagine that instant twist of torque.
