Post your latest oil change

1996 Chevrolet Impala SS
OUT: unknown (Pennzoil Platinum 5W-30 would be my best guess based on UOA), Champ Ecore filter
IN: Mobil 1 0W-40, Mobil 1 filter

2005 Toyota Camry 4cyl
OUT: Meijer conventional 5W-30, Napa Silver filter
IN: Mobil 1 AFE 0W-30, Napa Silver filter
 
2002 Ford Ranger 3.0
168200 Miles

Out : Mobil 5000 5W30, Wix 51516
In : Havoline 5W30, Wix 51516

I quit using the Motorcraft FL400S last year. It's always had a startup rattle while the lifters build up pressure. I suspect that Purolator's silicone ADBV isn't really doing its job in this application.

With the Wix 51516, the lifters are dead quiet on startup and oil pressure comes up immediately.

I "usually" run a 5k OCI, but just bought a house and was anxious to get the garage floor dirty.
 
2014 Honda Accord K24W1 total 9574 miles

Out: dealer bulk 0w-20 and A02 filter run for ~50 miles

In: M1EP 0w-20 and NAPA platinum filter (WIX XP). Will run to 15% MM

New to me CPO Accord Sport CVT. Purely emotional decision to put in "better" oil and filter
 
2008 Acura In Signature -- 5061 miles & 30% oil life remaining on OLM

Out--Pennzoil Ultra PP 5w20
In--4quarts QSUD 0w20 & half quart of Pennzoil Platinum PP 0w20, also reused Fram Ultra for second run.
Note--Oil really smelled like fuel, probably due to the 2 bottles of Techron & 1 bottle of All in One Fuel System Cleaners all ran on this oil change.

'99 Subaru Legacy 2.2 AWD
A little over five months on oil, miles uncertain because this Subie thinks it's an old Mercedes in that it only records miles run when it feels like it, but a good 5K.


Out: Meijer HM 10W-30, P1
In: M1 HM 10W-30, P1

This car has an oil leak, so I'm trying the M1 HM which I bought from Meijer for $22.99 less three dollar discount less twelve dollar MIR.
I don't expect it to work, but some members have reported very good results with this oil so we'll see.
Hope springs eternal.
