Yup.
Have you done a UOA to see how things are doing at 10K miles? Since you rack up a lot of easy miles quickly, possibly you could extend your OCI past 10K if your goal is to save money.
Protection? Thats amsoil OE, not Signature - The QSUD or ultra should be easily as good or better with a normal factory OCI interval. No difference in "protection" here, whatever you feel "protection" is. No use "cheaping out" on oil for 2 GALLONS WORTH OF GAS COST. NOT GOOD ECONOMICS ANY WHAY YOU LOOK AT IT. CUT YOUR BUDGET SOMEWHERE ELSE, NOT ON CAR MAINTENENCE. Good luck with the car and sorry for the caps lock.
i totally agree, on paper from my understanding PU is better then QSUD and way better then Amsoil OE.
Amsoil OE $4.41 per quart
PU $5.59 per quart Walmart
QSUD $4,39 per quart Walmart
if your running 10k OCI on Amsoil OE.
i don't see why you wouldn't run QSUD longer and PU even longer then that, going by what's paper.
Best way to know is UOA.
