In; Valvoline Synthetic 5W-30 and K&N HP1004
3,652 miles on this run, but six months. Got ants in my pants.
Figured I'd give 5W-30 a run just for S&G's.

There is an OPE forum, with it's own "Post your latest oil change" for them.

I had enough time today to do two oil changes, one on the BMW, switching it from Mobil 1 0w40 over to Castrol 0w40. I was a bit annoyed at how impossible it was to read how much oil was left in the 5L jug though, despite having the see through window on the side. I honestly couldn't see where the level of the oil was.
The second oil change was on my Honda, putting in more M1 0w20 AFE but I kept the same Fram Ultra on there, as it only has 6200 miles on it so it could easily go another interval.

I have a Fram Ultra on my mom's car and it will be on there for the next 5 years.
I do a drain and refill once a year (4000 miles).

I must say that I quite enjoyed not changing my oil filter on the Honda today! That's always the messiest part of the job and it definitely adds more time too. I think I did the entire oil change in under 15 minutes today!
