Post your latest oil change

[Popsy]

One OC I'm very proud of!

GF's Smart Forfour

Out Motul 8100 0W40
In: Motul 8100 0W40
Filter: Mann W67

I actually made her bought the oil on sale a few months ago, and the filter like a year ago, and today I made her change the oil herself!
It is really easy on her car, easy access without even lifting the car, and the filter is easy to reach too through the boot, but this is the first step through marriage, don't you think? (lol)

How did you drain the oil on a car? It is so not wide that you cqn get one arm to the oil pan?

Not sure if you were asking me, but yes, on the Smart you can. Actually you can on all cars in my sig but the Colt!

Yes I was talking to you. Are you ready for the Tour de France and Roland Garros?

 

[Popsy]

Actually we don't see much of that in Brittany...too far from the Paris hype I guess. I'm closer from UK than Paris

Out: 50/50 mix of Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20 & Mobil 1 0w40 EF, Bosch Premium Filter

2001 Subaru Forester, 209k miles

Out: Rotella T6 + Liqui Moly MOS2, Bosch Distance Plus Filter
In: Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage 5w30 + Liqui Moly Ceratec, Mobil 1 Filter

Also did a Liqui Moly Pro-Line Engine Flush before draining the Rotella. There was some mechanical tapping at startup that goes away after the car is hot; don't know if it was all the engine flush (UOA sample wasn't that dirty, oil after flush was BLACK!) or if it was the Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage or Ceratec, but after the 2nd day the tapping noise is not only much quieter on a cold start, but disappears long before the temp gauge ever comes off 'C'.

Should get UOA today.

Dave did 10k on Dino, are you sending it for a used oil analysis ?
Curious to see how good ol Pennzoil conventional held up.

Nope, if you have seen my previous posts on older Formula Shell used oil analysis there is nothing to worry about.
