Yes, thank you. I read your thread prior as well. I am just sticking with Mobil One AFE 0w30, meets manual's recommendations. Thanks again.

Owner's manual says only use 0w30 and then says "Using oils of any other viscosity other than those than recommended could result in engine damage." That is why I would not put in a 5w30 oil due to potential warranty denial. I mean it is very clear what the manual says and if I did ever have an...

owner's manual says 0w30 gf6, snplus, sp, quaker state does not have 0w30 that meets the gf6, sn plus, or sp spec. They do have a 0w20 that meets this.

Obviously, I do not know for a fact what was used for the factory fill. Is it common for the factory fill to have a lower grade viscosity fill? As far as finding a Quaker State 0w30, yes the Euro is the only one that has that spec. Quaker State is what Hyundai sends to the dealers (at least my...

1. Name brand, high mileage, on sale with filter. All my vehicles between 150K and 200K miles, I change every 3 months whether it needs it or not. I just like to get under the car and just makes me feel better.

Is this amount of moly typical in high mileage oils? What about other oils, in looking at a few of the other voas, this seems like a lot of moly?

Thanks Lone Ranger and Kestas, I was hoping you said that. good night.

I had a AAP filter where the media tore at two side by side pleats where they mated to the end cap. The filter had metal end caps. Has anyone seen this before? I ran about 1500 miles like this (with the torn media) and suspect that most of the oil, if not all was bypassing the media. I have...
