    If You Could Meet Someone From BITOG?

    There are members in this thread that changed my mind about them, both good, indifferent and bad. It's possible that some members reading this thread will find out - what they thought was a friend really isn't..... and what they thought-of as a 'take it or leave it' member, really displays well...

    Can you even buy a "bad" oil anymore? Even cheap syn is great!

    I call it a Dead Heat Race that fighting to finish Show in a hypothetical horse race. Patman's comment earlier that Supertech is as good as vanilla Mobil1 about 4-5 years ago is correct (as I see it). The EP / Triple Action produced today resolved all complaints from the past on engine loudness...

    M1HM 0w20 now has dexos1Gen3 approval

    Good oils are why that vehicle is far out of warranty. So continue the practice. What I also like about the pictured thread is that the HM with Dexos 1 Gen 3 is also Triple Action Formula

    Fresh Oil = Quiet

    I'm on Amsoil Euro 0w30 and thinking about changing to SS 5W30. We are surely living in a upside down world.

    Can you even buy a "bad" oil anymore? Even cheap syn is great!

    The manner in-which you drive..... Do you keep your dipstick oil mark at full level........ How often you change the oil........... How long are you keeping that vehicle...... ..... matters more than the name of the oil. There are situations when the more pricey brands are necessary. The...

    So then it shows the SP Standard on the back of the jug?

    GMC Sierra 2500 HD L8T 6.6 gas - First UOA, PUP 5W-30, 4,500 miles

    Mobil-1 EP Triple Action. It won't shed viscosity (shear) as fast. I used to run Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. Complained about their (GTL) ending cst@100 many times.

    Having noise through speakers when in AM

    If the vehicle is aged, another source for AM Radio interference buzz occurs when old school light bulbs (ex: tail light, backup light, brake light) are replaced by LEDs.

    Vehicle you're looking forward to in 2025 (and beyond)

    Toyota has upgraded & redesigned the inside & outside of the 2025 RAV4. The 2.5-liter DOHC four-cylinder engine remains.

    2021 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid - 4,600 miles HPL No VII 5w20

    Why?..... Calcium increases carbon and the vehicles I drive don't need any more than they already get. 1000 Max makes me happy..... still nowhere near the Dexos 1500 limit. That's also why you read me favorable on weaker SP Dexos instead of the more robust Euro's SNs. Lastly, I like high...

    Those with 150,000 miles or more, check in

    The 2012 Kia 2.4 is a Gen1 DOHC, not a GDI / TGDI engine. I doubt you find any all stacked up as junk, behind the dealerships. The 2012s were also in the era prior to HyunKia using soft metallurgy engine parts. The connecting rod bearings (#1 failure part) aren't the same either. The problems...

    2021 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid - 4,600 miles HPL No VII 5w20

    I wouldn't be shocked to read the 2nd UOA about to posted by the OP and shows Blackstone got that Calcium number wrong by a bunch. Might see the new UOA results (from a different lab) within a week.

    Post your latest oil purchase or even filter.

    What vehicle? What engines? What year? Odds are, it was not a good decision, unless he's driving a beater. Just about every passenger vehicle of the past several years recommends full synthetic and the 10k Supertech Syn is only a couple dollars more at regular prices, than what you paid for the...

    2021 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid - 4,600 miles HPL No VII 5w20

    I was about to buy this No VII oil until the saw the 2k Calcium number, which is way beyond Dexos Standards - which I think is 1500 max. Sure looking forward to seeing test numbers at a different lab.

    Tutankhamun's Curse is suspected to be radon gas.

    Here's three good guesses (2024)..... 1) All our USA nuclear plants attacked from within (at the same time) 2) Suitcase thermonuclear weaponry 3) Space-based anti-satellite nuclear deployment .... .... (shuts down virtually everything - including no sunlight upon the earth that portrays the...

    Pennzoil Platinum - 15k mile or 1yr

    I'm sure the Waltons Clan has done enough testing with Supertech, to match all the rigorous, numerous testings done by HPL and Amsoil ;) ..... the only two oils I desire for our Hyunkia's.soft metallurgy engines. Mobil-1 EP Triple Action 10w30 worked well also, when frankenblended with their...

    Pennzoil Platinum - 15k mile or 1yr

    Castrol Edge went to 15k and that brought out the 15k for Pennzoil Platinum. It's just a matter of time where we will see Pennzoil Ultra Platinum at 25k, to match Castrol Edge Gold at 25k.

    Pennzoil Platinum - 15k mile or 1yr

    Best wear protection and engine cleanliness oils interest me more than mileage guarantees.
