Post your latest oil change

[Cristobal]

I had in my car one quart of Rislone, two quarts of Pennzoil conventional 40 weight, and three of O'Reilley 5w30 conventional. It used an STP E-Core filter.

I ran it for 7500 miles and just replaced it with Pennzoil Conventional 10w30 with a MicroGard MGL3600 filter.

I will run it for 7500 miles as well.

2014 Ford Explorer Limited 3.5L FFV

OCI = 9,600 miles (7 months)

Out:
Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0W-20 SN and FRAM Ultra XG10575

In:
Pennzoil Ultra Platium 5w20 SN and FRAM Ultra XG10575

Interesting note--The front main seal had started leaking at about 25K and so I finally took it into the dealer to have it repaired. I planned to change the oil when I got the car back from Ford. However, today when I dumped the oil, I noticed it was relatively clean and then looked at the filter--it was an MC FL-500s. The dealer undoubtedly changed the oil as part of the repair--but did not tell me or reset the iOLM, which means there was less than 100 miles on the OC, but too late now. So no UOA on the Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy (which is irritating because I wanted something to compare to the Pennzoil Ultra). I have two PUP OCs from Team Pennzoil with free used oil analysis on deck so I will have to compare the two oils when I run the next batch of Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy.

I was looking forward to your results using the Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy...bummer! Sorry to hear about the front seal. Question; I used the FU XG10575 on my 3.5 and I have to ask...did I mess up? Is the XG2 the correct filter for that engine?

My XG10575 was fine, but what made you go with the XG2? Is it bigger or does it have better specs? Thanks!

2015 Toyota Prius - 1000mi

Out: Factory Fill
In: Toyota 0w20 Synthetic w/ OEM oil filter

I personally believe in the 1000mi oil change on a new car to flush out a lot of the break-in materials.

2011 Mazda CX-7 2.3T

In: SuperTech 5w-20 and Defense filter

Out: Castrol Tection Extra 15w40 and Defense filter

About 5 months and 6k kms.

Not much drained out despite using 15w40 to address consumption of oil. Still strong smell of fuel too.

 

[GSCJR]

2003 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T

In: 5w-20 SuperTech

Out: Same as above (still looked good)

No filter change (Defense 3600)

Oil was in service for about 28 months and about 2k kms. Will perform an oil and filter change in about 4k kms/4months or so to complete a cleaning phase; synthetic going forward from there.

 

[9000RPM]

2014 Porsche Cayenne 3.6 V6

In: Mobil 1 ESP 5w30 & Fumoto Drain Valve.

Out: Factory original Mobil 1 ESP 5w30.

Filter: Genuine VW Oil Filter

12 month change interval. Won't be putting more than 10k per year.

Dealership wanted $350 for a simple oil change. Did it myself for $100.00. Found a helpful indy shop to clear the service message on the dash display. No way around this without an expensive VCI tool. Only put about 4,500 miles on it since my purchase back in December. I wanted to go by the maintenance service interval just in case since it is still under warranty.

2002 Subaru outback sedan H-6

Out: Trop Artic 5w30 and Napa gold filter

In: Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy 0w30 and Napa gold filter

Oil was in service for about 6,000 miles. Plan on sticking with Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy from here on for an easy 10,000 mile OCI verified by UOA.

Filter might migrate to Bosch distance+ after the Napa golds are used up, unless the golds look good when I cut them open at the end of 10k.

89,606 miles at time of oil change

Out: Q Horsepower 10w30/Fram Extended Guard 3980
In: Pennzoil Platinum 5w30/Fram Extended Guard 3980

The Pennzoil Platinum I used is SM rated. 4 quarts were from 2006 and 1 was from 2008. The oil filter is also NOS and since it's oversized, I used 5 quarts instead of 4.5. There were approx. 3200 hard miles on the fill of Quaker State Q Horsepower.
