2006 Pontiac G6 GT (261443KM on car)

6624 KM OCI, OLM was at 0% for the second time, reset and ran down to 0 again.

No filter change, left the same M1-101 on there but I did take it off and let the oil that it was holding up in the engine out.

IN: Petro-Canada Duron 0w30

OUT:Caterham Blend (TGMO60%/M1 0w40 40%)

No sample this time. I had planned on it but changed my mind. Will likely try Petro-Canada analysis in the spring when I change both cars.
 
Changed the oil in my brother's car for him.

1993 Legacy L. ~190k miles, OCI duration unknown.

Out: Castrol GTX 10w-40

In: Havoline Synthetic 5w-30 with PureOne Filter
 
2002 Ford F350 SRW 5.4L Triton V8
4x4 Auto

Switched From Short OCI on Pennzoil Yellow Bottle Conv. (PYB) 2300 miles (oil was dark brown/black) 5w20to:

Mobil Super HM Synthetic Blend 5qts 5w20 1 qt 5w30


Seems to be running just as quiet and smooth as the PYB. Previously had Mobil 1 full syn before the PYB and it ran a little loud after almost 3000 miles, oil came out black.

On 8/3/13 for my 2000 VW Jetta GL, out Mag1 5W40 Euro after 9k miles. In went M1 0W40 with OEM oil filter. Planned OCI is 9k miles or 6 months, whichever comes first.

So far, 400 miles on this oil and the engine loves it. More noticeable pep and less noise than previous fill. No consumption yet.

'95 BMW 318iC, 143K car, 4K oil

Out: Maxlife 10W-40, Puro cartridge filter

In: Maxlife 10W-40, STP cartridge filter

I had a great UOA of this oil from this car last summer.
I'm limiting OCIs to 4K as a result of fuel dilution.
This is also the reason I've stuck with a 10W-40.
I think I've resolved the fuel dilution issue recently, so I'll UOA next summer's run to see whether a 10W-30 would work.
