Anyone else's order get cancelled? First it said there was an issue and that I can get a replacement. Replacement now says "undeliverable" and they're refunding my money.

Did your car come with synthetic from the factory? Then follow the monitor. If it didn't, then you can definitely extend the interval. The monitor only estimates oil life based on driving habits. It...

For many makers, any claim attempts where you can't prove you abided by their recommendations 100%, is just another reason for them to deny your claim.
It doesn't matter whether the oil was the...

Should I just ignore the oil life meter in my car? I've always done full synthetic and the oil life usually gets to 0% around 7-8K miles.

I don't care what certifications an oil has, you should never aim to spend more than $2-3 per quart on synthetic oil. Some of this is just marketing, I'm sure of it. Get on bitog if you want more...

I love the SLK, too bad they are giving it up. I guess they think the C-class convertible should be good enough for most small convertible buyers. I have a GT53 and I really don't want to take a...

They will be fine using this oil as it satisfies all of the normal service ratings as well. Check your manual, it will say what ratings the oil should have.

I highly doubt any warranty claim would be down to oil alone, even if you used the incorrect oil. And good luck trying to prove any fault was indeed oil related. Even if extra engine wear occurs, you...

I took this into consideration when I did this. Sourcing the oil and filter myself costs about $100. The kit that FCPEuro lists for my car is also $100. They actually include a new oil drain bolt...

This is an interesting idea! However, shipping back 9 quarts of oil is going to be pretty expensive just on the shipping. I thought it's neat that they do it for filters, but of course, my car's...
