I'll keep this short and simple.

I have an aftermarket gauge cluster on my 250r which monitors the oil temperature. Over the past three years or so, I've tried a few different brands of oil out of curiosity. Now I understand there are many factors in oil temperature, but my oil temp measurements were consistently lower than any other brand I tried with this oil installed. I tried to compare it on similar rides on days with similar temperatures and humidity.

Really, the only 'problem' I can come up with is that since the oil is purple and the bottle is purple, it's difficult to read how much oil you've poured via the sight in the bottle. Nit picky, I know.

Awesome performance in my bike. Engine runs smoother and stays cooler too. Exceeded my expectation for my motorcycle. Will use again next oil change.

Good brand. Consumer version of a popular racing oil. I use this for summer and 10W30 for winter. More expensive than other brands but you are paying for peace of mind. One of the top brands in terms of wear test. I use this brand in my truck too. If you want the cheaper ones just make sure you change oil regularly.

I just picked up a new crf 450x. After break in I switched to royal purple because if reviews. After putting it In I didn't notice any change in the engine but I noticed the clutch dragging, sticking ,and being real jerky. I thought maybe ill keep it in maybe it needs broke in . It only had 10 hours on it 5 on the new oil. After changing the oil every race or just about every 5 ours at 30 hours the clutch was sticking so bad it wouldn't start or roll I'm gear. I took everything apart and checked it all. So I decided its time to change oils. Switched to 10-40 hp4m from Honda with moly In The engine side could t believe the difference In engine noise quieted way down. And switched to Honda hp4 In the clutch wow what a difference no more sticky clutch. I will never use royal purple again

Seems good so far. The car got its first oil change and did not lose any mileage and may have gained a little.

Ive used this oil in past with good results! Its made by Nippon petroleum a japanese oil company. It worked well not just in my Mazda3 but also both my Ford Edge SUVs! It can easily go 7500 mi intervals with high quality oil filter. A true boutique oil inline with Royal Purple & Redline (2 highly regarded Amer brands).

The Prius C only has 5k miles on it, but it's over a year old now.

We decided to change the oil and filter before winter hits.

4 gallons is the prefect amount for the Prius C2,

and it was good to get rid of that old blackened break-in oil.

Before buying Eneos oil, I read a bunch of reviews.

This is good oil and should last us another 5k with ease.

Reviews of K&N KN-204 Motorcycle/Powersports High Performance Oil Filter

I like all K&N parts that I've used. Just be careful when using the Amazon application chart. Their chart said I need this KN-204 for my Ducati 750SS. Later research using the K&N website showed this would not fit ANY model Ducati and specified the KN-153. Just check the K&N website before you pick the model number of the filter you need.

This was only a minor inconvenience and loss of a bit of time. Amazon was excellent with the return and prompt on the refund. Didn't cost me a penny and they arranged everything. This is also the only time I've ever had to make a return out of the many purchases I've made with Amazon. That's hard to beat!

As with everything else that K&N does, these oil filters are great. You'll love the integral nut, on the back end, for removal when you next need to change it. A little bit more expensive than what you can get at Walmart or some auto parts stores, but well worth it. Think about what your time is worth, and the mess you save in not needing to wrestle with an oil filter that doesn't want to come off.

These K&N oil filters are high quality filters with the benefit of the nut on the bottom. On some vehicles with limited room around the oil filter, the nut on the bottom is priceless.

Honest reviews on K&N KN-204 Motorcycle/Powersports High Performance Oil Filter

Yesterday I took my brand new V Star 950 Tourer in for first service at 600 miles. I supplied my own K&N oil filter (which I purchased from Amazon.com) for the oil/filter change. The service manager said Ok they would use it. In fact, he informed me that they sold the same K&N filters right there at the dealership.

Later that day, as I was checking out and paying the bill, the dealership owner made a snide remark about my using a second rate K&N filter and implied that it could result in denial of a warranty claim if I had engine problems.

Well after I got home and thought about it I wrote Mr. Dealer a concise e-mail to let him know that his comment disturbed me so much that unless he provides me a written affirmation that using a K&N oil filter CANNOT and WILL NOT affect any potential future warranty claims that I will CANCEL my 48-month Yamaha Extended Service plan and get a refund. I have 30 days to do that and receive a full refund (minus a small admin fee). I am anxiously awaiting Mr. Dealer's response.

But regardless of what the dealer says to convince me otherwise, I intend to cancel the Y.E.S. plan before my 30 day period ends. Why wait until 3 or 4 years down the road to find out the $700 Yamaha Extended Service Plan is WORTHLESS? By that time I could only be refunded a small fraction of the original contract purchase price.

Anyhow, I am still angry and disturbed and plan to tell my story to K&N directly. I'm sure K&N also will be angry and disturbed about this dealership implication.

I've read a few studies based on the performance of K&N oil filters, but I'm not an expert on engine performance or engine life, so I cannot proclaim that by using these oil filters you'll have a perfect engine. I can tell you that I put 135,000 miles a Dodge Cummins 2500; 1,500 miles on a Yamaha Grizzly ATV; 50,000 miles on a Ford F-150; and 115,000 miles on a Chevy Tahoe using these filters and have had no filter related problems.

I change my own oil and started buying K&N for the 1" welded nut and that reason alone. It makes filter changes immensely easier, for me. No more filter wrenches or pounding a screw driver through the filter to muscle it off.

The extra money paid is worth it for me.

Valvoline SynPower Full Synthetic Motor Oil SAE 5W-30 - 1 Quart Review

Customer Ratings:

I use SynPower 5w-30 in my 2005 Hyundai Elantra which is my work vehicle. I go 5000 miles between oil changes with synthetic oil and sent samples to Blackstone Industries, a well-known oil analysis company in Indiana (I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area). I do a lot of stop and go driving in Texas heat but a lot of interstate travel as well. I also do a lot of idling.

Even at 5000 miles they said the oil looked great and still had most if not all of it's protective properties and then recommended me going 6000 miles before changing it the next time.

I've used this for my last few oil changes on my '04 Colorado, and I've noticed that my engine feels decidedly more smooth as it runs, and when I drain the oil it's color has not degraded nearly as much as other oils I've used.

After working in motorsports, and trying pretty much every oil that is out there, Valvoline is the winner. I had always been a huge Castrol Syntec use in all of my vehicles, and they do make a great product, but recently their prices have changed and the introduction of Syntec Edge, and Edge with Titanium I decided to make a switch, no need for Castrol to get fancy with differences in their product.

Valvoline SynPower has provided great, smooth running for my car and very little if any oil has been burned. I run this for at least 5,000 miles in my car and could probably go over 7500. You will not regret this product in your car.

If you have an older car and have been running conventional oil for a long time, do not be mad if you switch to a synthetic and start to get leaks. Synthetic oils will break up the "gunk" that has been formed and may open up leak areas, so make sure you do your research before buying if you're going to try and switch to synthetic.

Honest reviews on Valvoline SynPower Full Synthetic Motor Oil SAE 5W-30 - 1 Quart

Big fan of getting my oil via Amazon subscribe and save. Setting the duration to 6 months is perfect for my change interval and it reminds me I need to change the oil when it arrives.

Regarding the oil itself, benchmarks shows that Valvoline Syn is one of the better mass oils you can get. I've never had an issue with it and change it every 7k on my turbo car and 10k on my regular gas car. I've done oil analysis at these intervals several times and things look great.

Valvoline Full SYNPOWER is just as good if not better than Mobil One, and they are about the same price, where I shop the Valvoline 5 quart jug is about 3 dollars more than Mobil 1, but I will not step away from a proven oil that I have used in all of my cars, from My Ford Taurus to Jaguar Vandenplas, go ahead and step up if you want your engine to run properly and use VALVOLINE. Mobil 1 & Castrol are comparable, and Royal Purple may be the best Synthetic Motor Oil on the planet, although it costs nearly $10 a quart...Go VALVOLINE!!!

I read a great many reviews, tests, and anecdotal reports before choosing an oil filter for my car. I wanted something better than an old-style cellulose filter media. The Mobil 1 EP filter is a hybrid of both synthetic and cellulose media.

I have no issues with the Mobil 1 EP filter in my car. I have no valvetrain or other abnormal noise, even at startup.

The M1EP has a quality gasket, so it goes in and comes out easily. The can is very solid. This means two things: The M1EP will not burst if your oil pressure spikes; and unlike some cheap oil filters, the M1EP won't bend when you remove it. The anti-drainback valve is made of quality silicone. The bypass valve is controlled with a coil spring.

I've had my oil tested for particle counts with M1EP filters, with one particular brand of filters using pure synthetic media, and with filters using pure-cellulose media. Based on the numbers I saw, the M1EPs did a vastly better job of cleaning up the oil. That is, the particle count was much lower with the M1EP versus the OEM cellulose filters, and versus the pure synthetic filters. It wasn't even close.

The only bad point, at first glance, is that it costs more than many filters. But it can be kept on for 15,000 miles. If you keep it on for two or more oil changes, the price factor ceases to be an issue. Besides, my car--and my peace of mind--are worth it.

Just one other note: The packaging and product labeling on M1EP filters has changed recently (as of early 2012). The new packaging claims "99.9% efficiency", where previously it said "99.2%". It also says it lasts "3X as long", where before it said "2X". I called Mobil and asked about this, to see if the oil filters had changed, or if this was merely for appearances. I was told that only the packaging/labeling has changed. The product itself has not changed.

The previous deal on a 6-pack of M1 filters wasn't to be found. The filters themselves are fine, one of the better built units out there, just hope to find better prices (I go thru several filters a year).

Ordered filters 2 day free shipping. Arrived on time and in perfect condition. Filters are heaver then other filters (fram, purolator, etc). Wonderful material of construction quality. Internals have spring loaded backflow preventer and nicely designed filter media and supports. I've used so far fram 9688, microguard to date. In my opinion there is no comparison to Mobil extended guard.

Good price for money. I have 06 hyundai sonata 4 cylinder. Would highly recommend filters.

Stop using oem filter because they sometimes were out of the original mitsubishi filter. Took it to the dealer and it fit without any problems. I checked it after a 100km run and it had no leaks.Cannot feel any difference but at least I figured since I was using Mobile 1 10W30 oil that this filter would be a good match.The filter cost 2 dollars less than the oem filter.
