Do you pay upfront then just send it in and no additional cost?Got mine some time ago from RA for $9.99 each! They don't always have them in stock. Keep your eye pealed
Yes that right just add postage just under $3 last time I sent one in.Do you pay upfront then just send it in and no additional cost?
any plans to go 0/5w40 in that rig?2010 Lexus GX460, 71k odo
Out: Supertech 0w20 SP, Wix Filter, 2925 miles severe duty 90% towing
In: Total Quartz 5w30 Long Life SN, Champ P968XL filter
I will be doing a wix UOA on the supertech. I'm out of wix filters, and will not hesitate to buy more if the price is right. I will be doing a wix VOA on the Total Quartz to see what Long Life means. I havent scoured the russian club forum to see if its already there, but its still fun to contrast even if it is.

Curious minds would like to know how long have you been running 5W-30?2018 Mazda CX-9:
Out- QSUD 5w30/Bestline, Fram TG Filter
In- QSUD 5w30/ 8oz LG, Champ XL Filter
73,104 miles
Since I bought it at 36k. I've toyed with the idea of jumping to a 5/0w40 but haven't yet. Haven't done an analysis or anything but seems to hold up okay and don't smell a large amount of fuel when I do the oil change.Curious minds would like to know how long have you been running 5W-30?
Happens to the best of us. IIRC OE is usually Denso, but I can’t see a NGK of being such egregious lesser quality. You’ll probably be good. Not like an eBay special.2019 Honda Pilot 62K

Did a ooopppsss. Be careful jacking the front. Dented the front o2 sensor. Checking engine indicated it. Scavenger hunt to find one. Hopefully the NGK equipment from autozone will last.
I know chit happens. Just glad they had one.Happens to the best of us. IIRC OE is usually Denso, but I can’t see a NGK of being such egregious lesser quality. You’ll probably be good. Not like an eBay special.
