Post your latest oil change

2007 Volvo V70 base w/114K. 6,255 on oil.
OUT: Winter abused oil -glad to retire it.
IN: 6.1 qt. Mobil1 0W-40 E.F. Denso filter -one of 2 from RA which were packed with the wrong 0-ring (by Denso, presumably) and put into my stock and discovered too late for RA remedy. Denso declined to help as well.
Inspect your shipments.

Yo, Creekside: Good luck with your new truck.

Interesting I ordered some spark plugs back in October and just last week realized they sent me one that was the wrong heat range, and they sent me a replacement with no argument
 
That's good to hear. A return time window is printed on the RA receipts/invoices.
In my case I had ordered the oil filters 2 years before.
Because I concluded that my 2 couldn't've been the only 2 from Denso with incorrect O-rings (aka they knew about the problem) I had a shot at remedy.
It dawned on me to simply reuse the existing 0-ring....genius I am.
