Regarding QSUD 5w30 VOA, I've always refer to the PQIA March 2013 test results. However, I noticed that PQIA had tested a newer QSUD (date purchased 12/28/2015). Compared with PQIA's last test of QSUD (date purchased 1/25/2013) the main differences seems to more moly in the newer formulation...

Any opinions/reviews on Microgard cabin air filters (Oreilly's store brand)? Comparison to Wix? Bosch? Sorry if this topic has been discussed before. I did a search for Microgard cabin air filters and didn't find much info. Thanks in advance.

In my research for an ECU tuner for my car, I was reading up on the available off the shelf (OTS) tunes/maps. Interestingly, this is the first time I came across ACN91 (Arizona, California, & Nevada 91 Octane). Apparently, ACN91 is a lower quality fuel (for power) and thus the tunes/maps for...

Hi everybody. I've recently purchased my first turbocharged car (2012 Subaru WRX). Being my first turbo, I wanted to learn about any special care for turbocharged engines by reading any and all information I could find (subaru manuals, tsb's, wrx and subaru specific forums and of course bitog)...

Hi everybody. I'm thinking of purchasing a Motive pressure brake bleeder (SKU#0101) and using it on my 02 Honda Accord V6 and 05 Honda CRV to flush the brake MC and lines. I currently have the hand pump that attaches to the bleeder screw and find 1)it takes too long, 2) gotta have a good seal...

Hi everybody, I was wondering if you gurus can provide some info/insight on the various Gumout products listed below. Now, I currently use Regane (bought a bunch when the store had it priced incorrectly at $2.99) and feel it is a fine product (butt dyno as well as non-scientific gas mileage...

Both NGK and Denso are spec'd in the Honda Owners Manual. Just looking for some comments on which to choose...NGK or Denso or either. Thanks.

How much does the ambient temperature (hi temperatures not the low temps) affect the temperature of the oil? Example, when the outside temperature is 70degF vs. 100degF, how much does that affect the temp of the oil when the car is "at operating temperature"? This comes to mind as most of us...

Has anyone had problems with using/mixing honda brake fluid and non-honda brake fluid such as castrol's GTLMA brake fluid? The Acura Integras I had owned (years 1990 and 1994 integras) the brake master cylinders went out relatively quickly (around 60K miles or so) and I know I had used...

Did a quick search and didn't find too much info or opinions on Valvoline synthetic? Is there a general consensus on this oil? Is it highly regarded like Pennzoil Platinum or loathed like Mobil 1? Somewhere in between? By the way, this oil would be for a 2005 Honda CR-V and 2002 Honda Accord V6.

A buddy and I went to Honda to purchase some OEM Oil filters for his S2000. He received 2 made in Japan and 2 made in the USA. Yes, the oil filters had the same part number on the stickers but on the filter 2 said made in Japan and the other 2 said made in the USA. I'm not sure if this is...

States that on the back of the new bottle of PP 5w30 that I just bought yesterday.

Does anyone know what the difference is in the test methods between the two? I recently checked the Dino Pennzoil 5w30 flashpoint as 216 deg. F (ASTM D-93) and Pennzoil Platinum 5w30 flashpoint as 196 deg. F (ASTM D-92). At first I thought, why would the Dino Pennzoil have a that much of a...

Does group III synthetics contain Viscosity Index Improvers? Or are they like Group IV and V synthetics that do not contain VII's?

I recently saw the new mobil1 5w30 bottle at my Costco. Yep, says meets Honda HTO-06. Also meets ACEA A1/A5, B1/B5. Regarding the ACEA, previously the bottle only said A1/B1. Can someone please freshen my memory as to what the A5/B5 means?

Does anyone know what the owners manual states for the oil weight to use for a Honda CRV (2.4L) outside the U.S. and North America? Thanks.

I've been a longtime user of Mobil 1 for many years in several cars. On my past car (before it's untimely theft), I've used Mobil 1 for all of it's life and when I took the valve cover off at over 100K miles, the cams, rocker arms, etc all were squeeky clean. Now with the less availability of...

Happy New Year to all! Can the 5w20 users please chime in and say how many miles they now have on their car? Car, Mileage, OCI. Thank you.

Hello All, My wife calls me crazy for obsessing over motor oil. More so since I can't make up my mind on which way to go regarding oil choice and OCI. Anyone else here obsess about motor oil? First of all, I think I might just stick with Mobil 1 for my oil. I'm not considering dino or blends...
