No worries about it. I actually switched over to VWB and Valvoline Synthetic for Winter OCI. Can get it for a great Price at WM. However I am being a snob and running Fram Ultra's on both vehicles.
I would use a Fram Ultra in a minute and I know this is gonna sound weird but I actually like my Lexus Parts Manager as he has helped me out bunches of times. And I mean bunches of times. For example, my mechanic got in a jam installing a Lexus part. I called the Parts Manager and he got get a Service Tech on the phone after 5pm when the service tech was at home. That Lexus Service Tech and my mechanic worked together to get some oil thing properly installed on my old GS300
I don't forget that kind of help. That same Lexus service tech that will take the time and show me how to install certain parts while he is at work. He will call me to his bay and give me tips on installing a transmission mount, track bar, wheel bearing, etc.
Yeah, I will continue to buy my Toyota Oil Filters from him. Here, I don't want my heart to override my logic.
