In: 5w30 Valvoline dino shop oil plus Valvoline synpower additive.

I forgot to take off an old outdated service sticker and the mechanic accidentally threw out my nice new oil for some valvoline. So now my 'roo is going to run with the thinner 5w30 for the summer. It had a nice 50% larger filter for the 3l H6 engines too (from the subaru svt or xt6?), that seemed to fit fine despite the shorter threads.

On the plus side though, my subie now does have a fresher manual transmission and brand new clutch!! So it should be good to go for the next 160k miles.



I hope you didn't pay for an oil change you didn't ask for!
 
2007 Focus

Old: M15-20EP

New: M1 0-20

10K on this OC. By the looks of the oil and it's performance, several more Ks were still in this oil.
