@@sixtyminute4482 hey 60! Thanks for the words of encouragement!! Will do!! 😎❤️

@@erice4611 hey Eric! Thanks for checking out this short! Glad to hear from you! I run this oil with a Purolator One!

@@jacobwhittaker6241 hey Jacob! One thing to take into consideration is the Mobil 1 filter shown in the video is not for the same vehicle model as the Purolator’s in the video.

Hey James! WIX are really nice filters!

@@Bluegrass1965 hey Bluegrass, my thoughts are the same as yours! I was able to pick up two of them at a sale last week.

@@seanmclaughlin7415 hey Sean! Thanks for checking out this video, I haven’t seen an engine tear down. Are you saying non-Euro oil causes engine components to coke up in Euro cars?

@ No. I am saying that Euro engines (not all) have a tendency to carbon up and needs a different formula to compensate for this. It may depend on how well they are maintained, too. Or, have abused they are.

@@seanmclaughlin7415 do you think I can get away with using VRP in the Audi engine if I do 2500 OCIs?

@@NoName-tz5ji hey there! I did the same when I had my Acura mdx. It said to use a different viscosity when the weather either gets colder or warmer. No idea why there isn’t anything like that for my F-150..

@@cliffh8486 hey Cliff! Glad to hear you’re seeing results. I’m planning to do the same for my truck!

@@Gspizzy hey thanks for stopping by! wait really? First time I’ve heard of this. What does it do exactly for the engine?

@@RoadRacerGT1 Good morning GT1! I’ve actually seen exactly what you mentioned in the manual of my old 2008 Acura MDX. In the newer cars within my family, I haven’t been able to find that chart…. I’m wondering why it was removed.

@@miguelmaldonado9881 interesting!! I’ve done it before but only in an emergency!

I don’t know about this! But I’m not an oil expert lol

@@forestpassineau good morning, Forest! I agree with you here!

@@brassmule hey Brass! Morning! Is it really that hard to do an oil change on a Volkswagen? lol

Have used the same Size Drop In Oil Filter Cartridge for over 21 years. Would agree the 2 Fram Ultra XG9018 filters I've used so far (During my First Oil Change of VRP in my Terrain last year) has performed the best so far compared to the other Straight Pleat Filters that have been commonly used in my vehicles since around 2004. The XG9018's build (with the Filter Media reinforced with a wire mesh) reminds me of the Heavier/Thicker "Zig Zag" Filter Cartridges that Saturn/GM originally used in my 2003 Saturn ION... They didn't "twist". The Pattern sort of provided structure. Not sure why they (Saturn/GM) got away from using them... The Original Oil Filter Cap was backwards compatible with the "Zig Zag" and Straight Pleat Filters... But all the new/replacement caps require the use of the Straight Pleat design. Seem to recall the PSI rating of the "Zig Zag" was different so would have been a problem if used in a newer Cap...

@@ampedupelectronics hey Amped!! I’ll check out your channel shortly! This is an incredible observation and one I have not payed much attention to! How often do you change out your oil? Do you run extended by chance?

@@lgoamity hey lgoamity!! Thanks for stopping by! Thanks for sharing your experience about twisting!

@ I always change the oil within 4000 km in the last three years. When I first got the car, I would do an oil change every time it asked for add quart so around 2500 km -lots of frequent oil changes.

@ are you in Canada?

Not sure if I would ever to be honest! I’m too scared to mess something up lol

@@ampedupelectronics ahh that would make sense!

@@ampedupelectronics hey Amped!! I really like how these Mann filters are built. It seems sophisticated and solid of a build.

Hey Mango! Yeah I agree!!

@@usocrazy6133 agreed!

@@Horvath0819 hey dude! How did you determine that was the appropriate mix of the two oils? Or is that just from experimenting?

@ just from experimenting honestly haha. From all the used oil analysis I’ve seen of the Pennzoil UP 5w-30 it always seems like it ends up as a 5W-20 viscosity. I did a virgin sample of the UP 5W-30 and it came back as a 30 weight but on the thinner side with a cSt viscosity of 9.2 @100*C. The 50/50 mix of the UP 5W-30 and 0W-40 came back with a cSt viscosity of 10.8 @100*C which is on the higher side of the 30wt scale. I live in FL where it’s hot most of the year so I feel a higher viscosity 30wt will shear less over time. And actually the 50/50 virgin mix came back with better anti wear numbers than just the 5W-30 alone

@ I’m an oil nerd myself 🤣

@@Horvath0819 man I wonder if the oils are just not holding up its viscosity in our boosted engines. Do you wonder so too?

@@MidwestF150 from all the research I’ve done I haven’t seen anything negative about mixing oil weights as long as you stay with the same brand and line of oil

@@HondaFarm307 hey Honda! As the USPS used to say, “if it fits, it ships”. I think miles may vary in any situation, and I think big companies like Valvoline typically err on the side of caution when answering questions. But… I’m not an oil expert lol

​ they make oil so they can sell it ...😮

@@TRX450R hey bro! Thanks for stopping by! Can you share why you’re running trans fluid in your engine? I’m super curious!!

@@MidwestF150 it’s an old school mechanic hack to introduce more detergents. I had a loud ticking sound at startup and after the first time I ran a quart of transmission fluid(100 miles before my oil change), the lifter ticking sound went away.

@@TRX450R ahhh I see!! Man so many different ways folks are going about car maintenance. You gotta tell me more about the old school ways! I won’t do anything like putting transmission fluid, but I always find it interesting when folks do things different than most and see results.

Valvoline is gonna get an email about adding atf to your engine oil 😮 lololololololololol. Oh boy

@ hahahaha I won’t ask about that one! lol

@@anthonybrincefield2812 hey Anthony - thanks for checking out this video! My thoughts are the same.

I agree abf2812. I can fully appreciate if your car manufacturer calls for a 0w-20 and you’re trying to use 20w-50. That’s a huge variation in viscosity that could perhaps cause issues internally within the engine. Especially dual OH cams that rely on engine oil pressure to engage things properly. But the differences between a 20w and 30w oil is minimal. They just covering their behinds from a liability standpoint.

@@HondaFarm307 +1

@@HondaFarm307 As a side note , a few years ago,at a NHRA national event. There was a turbo mustang, while watching the crew work on it I noticed that they used conventional oil. I asked one of the crew members about that as I had bought a 2017 F-150 and a synthetic blend was recommended. He said they changed the oil A lot so made more sense for them. However he told me he recommended full synthetic for any turbo or super charged engines for street use, heat protection. And he used 10-40 in his Ecoboost. I change at 4,000 miles. Pennzoil Platinum 10-30

Hey Randolph! Good to hear from you! That’s great to hear! How many miles are you into it now?

@@charleskitchenman2915 ❤️

@@rocketcityfourxfour good morning Rocket! It’s funny you mentioned this because I was just talking thru the math with my brother last night lol. I told him I do about 20K/years. Assuming this rate, we are at about 22 years away lmao.

@@manveerchauhan2530 hey there! Thanks for sharing your experience! It helps a lot! I think I might just stick with my OEM ones… unless NGK sends me some for free lol which I don’t think they will

@@Lepermessiah2386 hey Messiah! Thanks for sharing that! It starting to make more sense for me to just stick with my Motorcraft ones

@@PianoTuningArtist hi Piano!! Thanks for stopping by!! I really appreciate it!

Hey Jesse! Do you think the oil will actually clean the dipstick port during an oil change interval? I’m down to do it, but my gut tells me not a whole lot of oil goes up there

Well the dipstick is obviously flushed by this oil. I just put this stuff in a D21. After a couple thousand miles I'm going to pull the valve cover off and take a look.

@ sounds good! Yeah I’ll put something together for you soon!

@@Mike-Capz83 hey Mike! Same thing happened on my Acura MDX when I had it. It did NOT like the store brand coils.

@@MidwestF150 best bet it just buy oem parts, at the time i was broke so i bought cheapest thing at the time, and only lasted like 2 years.

@ hey I totally get it. I just wish there was more compatibility testing done before these products are released into the market.

@ i thought autolite would work great in my engine but for some reason my engine didn’t like it

@ did you know that FRAM owns Autolite?

Hey Charles!! Haha yeah they confirmed that it does not. Sounds like it can extend service intervals on Sparkplugs though!

@MidwestF150 just put some NGK iridium Xi plugs in my wifes frontier a few months ago ....

@ how are the iridium’s treating that engine?

@@MidwestF150 rediculous??? But it runs great 👍

@@Mr.Luigi13 hey Luigi! That’s good to hear! I heard that the more modern Sparkplugs (the pre-gapped ones) can’t be gapped. Is that true or did I run across fake news? lol

@ I have not heard that myself, I will look into it and see what I find.

Hey Wicked! I think they meant that the Ruthenium’s will extend the life of the service interval. It was my question to them on if it does or does not extend the life of the vehicle. I’m still considering it. I’m waiting to see what folks say about it in the comments. So far, it seems like sticking with my OEM iridiums isn’t a bad idea.

@@Horvath0819 hey bro! How’s it going? I’m kind of reading it the same way you are. I’m stilling thinking thru it, but so far leaning towards keeping the Motorcraft OEM iridiums.

@ if they weren’t so expensive I’d say give them a try and see if there’s a difference lol. But that’s a lot of money to spend on plugs especially if they don’t give you the results you want lol

@@Horvath0819 dude look on RockAuto. It’s significantly cheaper than big box stores.

Hey Brass! This is the type of experience sharing that helps!! My thoughts are the same about iridium about being superior. Would you use it again?

@@MidwestF150 I will probably stick with the Ruthies, yes. Am I getting maximum benefits from them? Probably not, but my fuel mileage is remaining consist, all other factors being equal, and the plugs still look great after 30k miles on one set in my Odyssey [VCM deleted J-35]. Since they are priced well vs NGK Laser Iridium, I will keep using them.

@@brassmule sounds good!!! Let me know if you notice anything different down the road with the ruths. I’m super curious.

Hey Mango, thanks for stopping by! Appreciate the compliment! Got it on sale a couple years ago lol

Bro if laser iridium is available for your truck, get it 👍🏼

@ hey bro! What are your thoughts about the Motorcraft spark plugs tho? That’s what I currently have in the truck

@@MidwestF150 can’t say anything to it bro, haven’t tried it yet….but between NGK Ruth & NGK Laser Irid, the only good thing with NGK Ruth, is cheaper

@ that’s interesting though, I notice ruthenium is slightly more expensive. Maybe I’m looking at a different iridium lol

@@MidwestF150 lol there are many types of iridium bro look for “laser iridium” bro

@@KellyB-z2e hey Kelly! Thanks for checking out this video!!! I’m happy that you’re seeing some meaningful results!!! Are you planning to use this oil long-term?
