Out - Pennzoil Platinum 5w40 Euro
Honda OEM AND AC Delco filters!

This developed a serious oil leak part way through and I was busy so had a shop look. It ended up being a faulty gasket on the Honda filter so they put on an AC Delco and topped it up with 5w20 of whatever flavour they had in bulk.

First and last time using an OEM filter, though I’m sure they’re usually fine.

How do you like 5w-40 in the K24a? Mine is overdue and has been valvetrain chattery for the entirety of this run of 5w-20.

Seems to work well for me but I have to admit I don’t notice any specific difference or benefit during driving. I’m actually just due for another change and have used about 2 litres. With 0w20 I was going through about twice that, which was more than I was comfortable with.

I do still get a bit of valve noise but always have, despite getting them adjusted. Not sure if any specific oil would change that. Either way, I’m past 312k km and going strong.

1993 Volvo 240 Classic sedan “Ruby”, 101,860 miles
Out: Kendal GT-1 5W30

Mann W917

The car arrived from SoCal 2 weeks ago. The car was driven a total of 400 miles in the past 4 1/2 years. Unfortunately the owner since new has had health issues.

It’s clear the owner changed the oil often. There is minimal varnish. The car is immaculate.
