I'm sensing some hostility. Re-examine your statement.

RTFM.......

At it again, huh? Thanks for the news we all can't live without. LOL

So, you go to an auto parts store and troll the oil section and get a little excited at the sight of a new packaging for a Quaker State oil? Then you take pictures and post them on the internet? Are you bored? Do you need a hobby? Wow...... just wow.......

Unless I haven't the tools, space, or convenience to do something on my vehicles, I NEVER let anybody touch or work on them. Too many hacks out there turning wrenches, and what most shops and stealerships charge can be astronomical. Knowledge is power is freedom!!!

Supertech Oil from Walmart. Cheapo filter as well. 5000 to 6000 oci. That should quell your worries.

If the car will be gone in a year, I'd just shake out the old one really well and put it back in. Let the next guy take the hit

I'm sure if you stuck with 5 or 6ish oci's, you'd have no problems whatsoever. I bought my car new and was always anal about oci's and always stuck with around 3000 oci's. Mine currently has over 235K and runs as strong as it did new. I've used the whole spectrum of conventional oil, and usually...

Originally Posted By: Inline200 Just want some opinions on OCI. I was thinking about changing every 5,500 miles or so. The owners manual from my 1998 required a "non severe" oci for 5000 mi, and a severe for 3000 mi. Since your car is so much newer than mine, I'm curious to know if they...

Is there a question about oil anywhere in your post? What's the point of your post in relation to this sub-forum??? Just as I thought. I hear crickets........

Why don't you make it sort of fun and solicit used oil from people you know? The blacker, the thicker, the more contaminated, the better! I'm sure you could tell some stories, and perhaps you could be quite surprised with the outcome.
