First post so here’s the low down:
2016 Chevy Z71 5.3L L83 (oil changed with OLM between 4 & 14%) (Catch can installed around 5,000) (*Dealer stated they use Mobil 1)
0-5,500 Factory fill and AC Filter
5,500-10,564 1st of 2 included dealer services Mobil 1* and AC Filter
10,564-16,502 2nd of 2 included dealer services Mobil 1* and AC Filter
16,502-22,556 Mobil 1 AFE and Mobil 1 Filter plus added a Filter Mag
22,556-29,618 Mobil 1 EP and Mobil 1 Filter UOA #1 preformed
29,618-36,694 Mobil 1 EP and Mobil 1 Filter
36,694-43,974 Mobil 1 EP and Mobil 1 Filter
43,974-50,983 PP and Fram Ultra Synthetic Filter
50,983-57,978 PP and Fram US Filter UOA #2 preformed
I’ve always been a Mobil 1 guy but with rebates & rewards at AutoZone I was able to get 15 quarts of Pennzoil Platinum and three filters (filters where STP extended performance but I purchased the sizes for my wife’s Tahoe and my sons truck as I wanted to start using the Fram US filters on my truck) for a final total of $30 so I figured being a little over $20 an oil change (had to buy 1 more quart to make 16 and got a 6 pack of XG10575 filters on eBay for $29.95 shipped) I’d give it a run. With all that said looking at the UOA’s which one would you use in the future if the price for either was equal, Mobil 1 EP or PP?
