Along the lines of the filter magnet conversation, anyone interested in a lower cost DIY Filtermag should have a look at the N42SH ARC Neodymium Magnet OD3 x ID2.5 x 0.75 in.x90 Degree that are currently on sale at CMS Magnetics online store. These are rated to 150c/302f so they won't loose...

Umm, Isn't the Honda Ridgeline's Oil capacity 5.3qts?

You might want to call that Autozone and confirm that the stock of 5w20 that they have is SM GF-4. I say this because the 3 Autozone stores near me have an ample supply of Superflo 5w20, problem is it's all SL GF-3!

I was looking for a boost in the add pack and the viscosity. Which turned out nicely. Really I don't think the wear values are out of line with what I have seen on some other 3.5L Honda's with comparable miles. Question is did it help or hurt? Neither, I think? I was a little nervious about...

First off Mark at Butler Mach. has got to be one of the best guys I know of. He went out of his way to help me. Thanks Mark Honda Odyssey 3.5L VTEC Driving Type 70/30 highway/city 15,001 miles at Oil Change(OC) OCI 10-18-04 thru 2-7-05 Motorcraft 5w20Premium Synthetic Blend SL, API Service...

WOW! Nice spec sheets. I wish every manufacturer would provide this much detail. The Schaeffers #315 looks to give the Chevron some competition. To bad it's not orange. doitmyself, Thanks for dooin the diggin. At least this gives me some idea what the SUPER UDT spec might be. I would have to...

Thanks for the suggestions, I had looked at the Deere Hy-Gaurd hydraulic/transmission oil which is what I think you are referring to. Here is what I have found so far. Hy-Gard hydraulic/transmission oil Based on these specs I would have to say the Chevron All-Weather THF is probably the...

I tried to download the MSDS for the SUPER UDT the other day but for some reason couldn't. Today it worked. Ashland is the maker but there is nothing usefull in their MSDS. I also found that Texaco TDH Oil SS appears to be the same thing as the Chevron Synthetic All-Weather THF. So if anyone...

I have a Kubota B2400 Compact Tractor which uses SUPER UDT in the combo hydrostat/hydraulic system and the front Bi-speed turn axle. The front axle can be filled with SAE 80 or 90 gear oil as an alternate. I have been unable to find any specs on SUPER UDT so I am having a hard time comparing it...

Why not mix with 5w20?

Oops, forgot to roll out the mat. Sounds like you have been hanging out here for a while as you seem to have a good idea of what's what. So, was your interest in oil brought on by the 5w-20 on your oil cap? Mine was. Good luck with the M1, I'm sure it will serve your Ody well.

Is this UOA from the first oil change after factory fill? If so it really doesn't look too bad. Warranty OCI is 7500 miles max. suggest you plan on earlier changes than the max. so you don’t go over again.

Schmoe, It looks like you have transposed your part numbers. The PL 24458 is the oversized version of the PL14459. The PL 14459 is what Purolator recomends for Honda's.

Just get an oversize pureone and that should solve any concerns either real or imaginary.

Maybe this will ease your mind some? What temp is too cold for 15W-40
