    Can Mobil1 M110 Extended performance filter go 14 months

    Why would length of time be an issue? I would think miles would be the only concern.

    Asking for a raise?

    Ok, you have some very timid people giving you advise. There's no harm in asking. They expect good people to want more.

    how much would you pay for vehicle with bad head gasket?

    How much coolant does it consume. You could run water so there's no smoke and probably limp it around for years.

    An update. Seems like shifts have gotten less detectable. The adaptive system might have lowered the pressure. Sucks.

    Down 600 bucks. I think it's going to accelerate later in the week. Who wants to bet we're down over a thousand in the next 20 minutes before close?
