Out: Pennzoil Euro LX 0w30 with 5,000 miles on it.
In: Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5w40
Left Napa Gold Filter on for 2nd Run
It works out to a spring and a fall change with 10,000 miles per year at this point.
Lubed chassis with Motomaster Formula 1 Synthetic grease.
Here are a few safety first photos; pino ramps, and plastic chocks.
5w40 shown.

Oh look; Blake is back on a “like” or “laughing” binge all over again. How sad
For the extra buck -- not going to try the Quaker State Ultimate Protection yet? Granted -- the QSFS is fine fine choice.
I am really liking the QSUP I put in the Acura TL the other week. Great bang for the buck motor oil.
Yeah, I like it so far also. Put in the gf’s daughters 19’ Corolla in 5w20 flavor. Plus they aren’t like Pennzoil or trying to confuse everyone with black label etc or so many choices

2008 Crown Victoria P71
Oil was not in service for very long but did the intake manifold yesterday and some coolant got into the spark plug wells, thereby into the oil. There was maybe a thousand miles on the oil.
Out: Maxlife 5w30/Bestline additive and MC filter
In: 4qts Delvac 15w40, 1 qt ST syn 10w40, 1 qt RGT 5w20(clearing leftovers. MC filter
167,658 miles

2019 Nissan Rouge SL AWD
23,703 total miles
Out: Mobile 1 0w-20
Purolater filter- gold can
4200 miles on the oil as it’s under warranty
In: Mobile 1 0w-20
Purolater filter- blue can
I was actually down a little on the stick right before the change. The last 1500 miles were mostly highway, with 500 of them being driven the day before I checked the stick. It wasn’t below the mark before the trip.
I went with the Mobil 1 jug in my inventory just to do a back to back on Mobil 1 (plus I kept the receipt) as it seemed the first use in the last bronzed up very quickly. That was my first change in the vehicle, having purchased it with 15,500 miles in it. Will it quickly bronze up again? Im guessing the detergents are doing their job.
I tend to lean towards Valvoline. That jug will end up in the Camry instead.

Probably will. This jug was bought before the new Ultimate Protection hit the shelves in my area. For years I would not touch Quaker State anything. Now I seemingly use it in all my vehicles.
My Pennzoil rebate, available in both the USA and Canada makes the decision easy for me.

Out - Chevron Havoline HM 5W-20, Chinesium Service Champ filter
In - QSFS HM D1G3 0W-20, Fram orange can of joy PH7317 with a louvered center tube. I’m guessing it’s a Fram-painted Champ.

Changed oil on the 2022 Maverick Hybrid today at 12160 miles on the odometer. Mileage on removed oil was 5552.
Oil use this OCI is about 1/3 qt.
Out: Mobil 1 Frankenblend and Motorcraft Fl-910s
In: 2.5 qt Mobil 1 OW-30, 2.5 qt Mobil 1 OW-20, .5 qt Mobil 1 0W-16 , all were AFE varieties
If it wasn't for the 15 screws to remove the under body shield, this would be the easiest oil change vehicles I have owned. Takes about 5-10 to reinstall. Sure keeps the engine underside clean.
