Post your latest oil change

Changed my 09 Scion xB today. 153k. Engine was a severe oil burner when I bought it at 146k, but piston soaks and some short interval changes have dramatically improved it.

Out: Harvest King 0w-20
In: Provident 5w-40 dual rated synthetic, Supertech 3614 filter.

This is an experiment to see if the thicker HDEO will reduce consumption and continue to clean up the rings and drain holes.
 
2019 Honda Pilot EXL AWD. 40% olm remaining did not reset. Will wait till 15%. Taking a 1500 trip to Florida. Previous fill had 4K miles with a bunch of idle time.

Out Amsoil SS 0W20 Fram Ultra
In Amsoil SS 0W20 Fram Ultra
 
Oil change #3 @ 3,498 KM. Yup it's a low useage unit.

Out: Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W30, Motorcraft FL2062

Just did 2 oil changes:

2021 CX-9
Out: Kirkland Signature 5w30
In: Kirkland Signature 5w30
Mazda OEM filter

2020 Hyunda Elantra
Out: Kirkland Signature 5w30
In: Kirkland Signature 5w30
Fram PH9688. Normally I use the OEM Hyundai but I ran out and Walmart had the Fram on the shelf.

5k intervals on these cars (actually on all my cars)
 
2019 Ford F-250 reg cab 4x4 plow truck at Monroeville location. 52k on it. They use Syn blend 5w30 and Auto Extra filters. Oil and filter had 7,700 miles on them.

Put M1 5w30 and another Auto Extra 618-51372 on. New wipers, brakes still good. Sent to our local alignment shop also since front tires already cupping. Boss and I put 4 sumitomo tires on this truck at 44k.
 
2018 VW Atlas w/3.6 VR6. 42,240 miles odo/4,573 miles OCI/last change 9/26/21. No consumption/oil added.

Out: 4 qt Mobil 1 5W40 Euro/1qt QSUD 5W40 Euro/1qt Liquimoly Leichlauf High Tech 5W40, Napa Gold filter
In: 5.8 qt Liquimoly Leichtlauf High Tech 5W40/0.2 qt Supertech Syn 5W20, Mahle filter, Corteco drain plug

Also used a can of Liquimoly DI Jectron.

Popped a cam position code/EPC as soon as I fired it up. Cleared it. Who knows...maybe related to starting up on ramps/at angle/oil pressure. #VWlyfe #6/72B2Bwarranty.

Shipped oil change kit back along with a cabin filter, wipers as well as an oil filter/plug from the Sportwagen for a full refund with FCP Euro. Return shipping free using PayPal.
 
2016 Chevrolet 2500 HD w/ 6.0L, 117,556 miles

Out: Amsoil 5W-30 (unknown if OE/XL/SS), Amsoil EA15K50 oil filter.

OCI: 4900 miles.

In: 5qts Kirkland 5W-30 syn and 1qt Mobil 1 5W-30, PF48 filter.

Considering the owner will never go over 5k on an oil change, I thought Amsoil is a little overkill for 5k intervals imo, I am much happier using Kirkland for a port injected N/A pushrod motor for 5k. I did put the sticker a 123,000 which is slightly over 5k (oops..).
 
Hyundai IONIQ 2022

Out: GTX 0W20 FS / Fram Ultra 9688
IN: Valvoline AFS 10W30 / MP9688

After a UOA where M1 5w30 ended up at 7.6 cSt @100, after 3K miles, and having replaced that oil with GTX 0W20, i figured i'd revisit that choice and changed it to above oil i had in my stash that is still one of the recommended viscosity....
