This was our first oil change with my son's new to him car.
His comment surprised me, saying how much quieter his engine seemed to run. I didn't mention anything other than saying Pennzoil is good oil and its the same oil I use in my truck and his Mother's car.
Changed oil in my 2005 Corvette which I bought new. Out 5W-30 Castrol Magnetec 100% synthetic and the same went in. The OLM was only down to 71% however I had not changed the oil and filter until very late fall and went on one road trip and did some cold starts every couple weeks in a heated garage with the door open. I had a new Mobil 1 filter on it and I just changed the oil since the filter probably only had 2 thousand miles on it. I wanted to change the oil only because we are going on a 3,000 mile road trip soon and I wanted it to have nice fresh oil. The filter should be good with such minimal use. The car is almost to 60,000 miles now.
