2001 Nissan Frontier VG33E 84,855 mi.
Out after 5889 miles--PP 5w30, Pure One.
In--Castrol Edge with Syntec Power Technology 5w-30 (the new SN stuff)----sounds impressive at least.
Pure One 14610
Got all excited seeing GF-5 Rating and "20% more deposit fighting detergents" and at $21 for 5qts and pureone filter I couldn't pass it up! MMO cleared up a slight lifter tick in a pinch.
): 2:1 thin:thick blend of Kendall liqui-Ti synblend and Delo 15w40.
In: 5w30 Valvoline dino shop oil plus Valvoline synpower additive.
I forgot to take off an old outdated service sticker and the mechanic accidentally threw out my nice new oil for some valvoline. So now my 'roo is going to run with the thinner 5w30 for the summer. It had a nice 50% larger filter for the 3l H6 engines too (from the subaru svt or xt6?), that seemed to fit fine despite the shorter threads.
On the plus side though, my subie now does have a fresher manual transmission and brand new clutch!! So it should be good to go for the next 160k miles.
