First post here. Grateful for the overwhelming info and depth of knowledge! I have lurked a while and thought I'd join, contribute & ask questions. Did two changes since Saturday:
1972 BMW 2002 Unknown mileage
Out: Castrol GTX 20w50, Mahle OC25 filter
In: Valvoline VR1 20w50, Napa Gold (Mann/Hummel) 1374
2011 Toyota Highlander v6 99,985mi
Out: Toyota OEM 0w20 synthetic, OEM filter
In: Napa 0w20 synthetic, Napa Gold/Wix filter
The oil in the 2002 was old but low mileage. I need to adjust the valves soon.
The Highlander has had a diet of only OEM oil aside from one M1 change a while back. Having discovered the value of Napa synthetic oil, I thought I'd try it out this time.

I literally LOL'd when I saw this! Called it!. . . anyway, I would have done the same thing. Will you use that VIOC again? Did you contact management? They owe you an oil change IMO.

I probably will. They told me the next one is on them. First issue ever. The problem is I use them so infrequently to begin with because I like and do, most of my oil changes anyway. I just chaulk it up to "lesson learned". And.....you did call it. ...† LOL

Out M1 5W30
In Pennzoil Synthetic 5W30
Only 2000 kms on the M1. I had to fix the oil pan gasket.

2007 Acura TSX; 94K; 20% on reminder; maybe 5K to 6K mile OCI
Out: 4 quarts of Valvoline Synthetic HM 5w30 and Fram XG7317 filter (2 OCI)
In: 5 quarts Valvoline Synthetic 5w30 and M1 110A filter
This car has half the miles of our 2006 TSX.
Our car does not burn a drop.
The 2007 burned at least a quart over the OCI.
I think this is the difference between M1 from the start vs Quickie Lubes.
Just my experience.

The 2006 Tb in my signature. 250,000on the odo and 25,000 on the oil.
Out was QSUD 5w30 and fram ultra.
In was the same.
I think the QSUD is one of the thicker 30's and I was hoping it would allow the oil usage when my change index goes beyond 20k. After that she begins to sip on the oil. Wondering if it shears a bit, allowing it to consume some....

Oil is cheap Brian. Show more homage to your aging Trailblazer and give the inner engine a bath more often.
Hats off to SOPUS / QSUD for conquering the abuse.

I think the OLM comes on around the 20k mark so 5k more is not to much in reality. I had pulled out the vvt oil control solenoid for inspection at one point and she was nice and clean, no sludge. I think I will bring her back down to the 20k mark this next go around.
