HM on a 2018? Whats the mileage?



Doing a little in house experiment
Engine only has 32K miles but it's always had a valve train tick
Ford says it's normal
I've tried a couple of 5W-30 SN plus rated oils and engine sounds the same
QS HM is a robust SN rated oil so gona give it a try for fun and see what happens

2014 Ford F-150 50,750 miles.

Out: Mobil 1 0W-20.
In: Castrol Magnetic 0W-20. I kept the same oil filter on the vehicle because I change yearly and it only had approximately 3,000 miles on it. I mainly use this
vehicle for towing my boat back and forth on longer trips such as 350 miles or less round trip. The oil was fairly clean looking and probably overkill but I will keep this truck for quite a while. It has the off road metal plate under the engine and when I change the filter it drips for literally a couple days and I avoided that by not changing the filter this time.
 
2010 Kia Soul 2U, 2L I-4, 149k on car.

Out:
Castrol GTX HM 5W-30, STP blue bottle and Fram TG9688 filter.
Approx. 6400 miles on oil, 1.5 quarts top off.

In:
Castrol Edge (black bottle) 5W-30 and Fram TG9688 filter.
 
2010 Ford crown Victoria police 110K miles


Out: Mobil Super 5000 Champ COS3614

In: Rotella gas truck full syn 5W20


Kept the Champion COS3614 since its same as a M1 filter with silcone ADBV good for AT LEAST 2 OCi's

My guess is you won't see many of these Honda's with that kind of miles.

Ya don't know reason why the police pkg got its own filter towards end of panther production ?? It was a PH2/XG2/FL820S across the board up to 2008. Then 2009-2011 the police interceptors got it's own smaller filters FL910S and the civilian cars stayed same FL-820/XX2 series ??


Any who, I'm gonna be running XG3614 from now on with my police vics
