Mobil1 synthetic 5w30.

I'm at like 25% on the meter.. i'll wait until it bitches at me to change it before I actually do. I changed it at about 6600k, and im at 12,000 now. I changed the filter when the meter was around 60% or so.

I think this is in the wrong section?

But anyway, Quaker State Synthetic, 5W30. Wix filter.

ROYAL PURPLE ALWAYS AND FOREVER...

Faithful every 3000 sometimes sooner!

Walmart has it the cheapest i have found around here but some places work with the prices.

Mobile 1 extended performance FTW

3 oil changes the entire life of my car

2 dyno's and no performance changes bad or good

I change my own oil so I just buy a case of it for $80 and one oil change lasts 5x longer than the conventional synthetic

I haven't had to change my oil yet but when I do it will be Royal Purple 5w30. I will just change it when the car tells me to do it. Since the oil life monitor assumes dino oil the interval should be just fine with synthetic.
