Post your latest oil change

2016 Toyota Camry 2.5L 4 cylinder- 155,251 miles on car. OCI: 4381 miles

Out: Frankenblend full synthetic 5W-30 and Wix Filter
In: Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w-30 (2.5 quarts) and 2 quarts Mobil 1 5w-30. New Super Tech filter.

It seems to be liking the switch to 5W-30. Runs quieter and smoother.

Out: Valvoline unknown, V0-106 filter (from Valvoline quick lube shop) 4200 miles on oil
In: Quaker State Full Synthetic High Mileage 0W-20, Denso 150-2006 filter

Went with QS as it is just a loaner car from a relative. My father is currently driving this after his ‘24 Camry was wrecked at the beginning of the year. Have had good results from this oil before. The old oil filter was way overtightened by some grease monkey, took me a while to get it off

In the 1216 pages of this topic, I am certain that I have responded several times since 2009 when this thread started.
I just changed the oil & filter in my daughter's 2022 Civic LX that is listed in my signature using
CarQuest 0W20 FS w/FRAM Titanium oil filter from AAP's "oil change bundle"(about $32).
The previous oil/filter was the same.

Out/In: Valvoline Restore & Protect 0W-20 / 90915-YZZN1

3rd run of VRP. Son did most of the work while I supported and supervised.

The same story continues with the Toyota OEM drain plug washers. The blue type also left material behind. It appears VRP will take off the coating of both the black and blue type washers. No apparent leaks. However it’s something to be aware of as material can stick to the bolt and pan. Heat seems to be needed for this to happen as soaking them for a few months in a container caused no change. Put on a black washer again this time. I predict the same results as before. The Toyota oil filter gasket has not been affected at all.

Are there two "crush washers" now they're recommending? One traditional metal one and your blue one above?
 
2014 Fusion 2.5L
233,500 miles
4800 mile OCI because I'm leaving for a road trip tomorrow.
Valvoline High Mileage 5W20
Purolator LX3614 filter because the WM and my go-to farm/home store on my side of town were sold out of my trusty FL910S and I'm comfortable with Purolator products.
Next stop, ~238,000 miles
Onward and upward

I get Toyota oil filters from the local dealership and they provide the black ones with the purchase. Those appear more like soft plastic. However I also purchased some additional spares to have on hand just case which are blue fabric coated and metal. I’ve seen the dealership use both for oil changes.
