I use Valvoline NextGen high mileage synthetic blend 5w30 in my 1998 Tahoe w/ 161k miles. I usually use ACDelco or Wix filters. Depending on how much highway/city driving I do I change between 3k-6k (manual says 3k for city, 7k for highway) and five quarts go in, five quarts always come out :D. I used Valvoline full synthetic high mileage for about three changes in a row, but decided it probably wasn't worth the cost on such a high mileage, non performance engine. Plus, I wanted to use the NextGen when it came out. So far, I'm impressed with the recycled oil.

Pros: five quarts in, five quarts out

Vehicle: Chevrolet Tahoe

Mileage: 161000 km

Leaks:

Bosch oil filters. I used them to desludge 2 engines, and it CONSTANTLY keeps pulling more and more out. Only problem, they are black, so leak detection can be difficult if its in a tight spot.

Pros: desludges engines

Cons: black, leak detection

I use Castrol GTX and OEM Filter (15400-PLM-A02) in my 96 Civic (leaks oil..)

In my Integra I use Mobil 1 and currently OEM Filter (15400-PLM-A02). I've looked into the HAMP filters before, but I can't really justify the price. I've used OEM on my cars for thousands of miles with no problems.

Pros: no problems

Part number: 15400-PLM-A02

VW uses castrol syn. 5w-40. With their filter, I think manufactured by Mann. I've been using that but just recently switched to lubro moly 5w-40 with a Mann filter

To change oil for a 2011 VW golf, you do need a special oil filter wrench (14 Points, 74mm),as the new german cars are using a cartridge type oil filter. I got mine from ebay, made of cast aluminium, works like a charm.

Pros: works like a charm

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Mileage: 6140 km

Part number: HU 719/6X

Leaks:

Oil filter/housing and the Crank Position Sensor are pretty common leak points. The CPS leak on my own car was like this phantom leak I just couldn't find until a shop fixed it for me.

Pros: common leak points

Cons: phantom leak
