My first oil change is coming up and was thinking of going with a K/N filter and Royal Purple oil. Any one here ever use it? Anything better than this Oil?
Thanks:cool

I guess this picture speaks for itself.Warlock said:What I did was become a "preferred" customer at Amsoil.com. I can now buy at dealer cost. My first purchase more than paid for my 'membership'
Thats what I would do. I changed over everything to Amsoil....engine 0w30, tranny, and rear end as well as an Amsoil oil filter. Car felt better than ever after the change over.
I also used Royal Purple 5w30 in the engine of my '99 WS6 which I sold to buy the GOAT. Had almost 50k when I sold it....never used a drop of oil.
You're so right!!! It was horrible picking up the boxes of Amsoil that were delivered directly to my back door. I'd much rather have run into town and socialize with the folks at AutoZone. :cheershardball75006 said:+1 on the Royal Purple....The stuff Rocks!
Unlike Amsoil, you can get RP at most good auto parts stores.
:lol: If you consider Autozone to be a "good" parts store, then I was not talking to you! Asshat!ShoddyHog said:You're so right!!!

He he...sorry to bust your chops like that, but I just couldn't resist. Royal Purple is great lube, so is Amsoil. I decided on Amsoil, was given a preferred customer account from someone here, and had it all delivered to my door. Can't get much easier than that.hardball75006 said::lol: If you consider Autozone to be a "good" parts store, then I was not talking to you! Asshat!![]()
I am sorry too. I guess it just got under my skin a little bit. I have heard great things about Amsoil, but when I get the urge to change my oil it's a gotta do it now kinda thing. Someday I might order some on the internet. But then I wouldn't be able to visit with my buddies at Autozone.ShoddyHog said:He he...sorry to bust your chops like that, but I just couldn't resist.

You will like the Synchromax. I used it in my Z3 (Getrag 5 Speed) and it took out the notchy feeling. It shifted smooth as butter.TexasAggie said:I guess RP and Amsoil all cost around the same, correct?
I have the RP that I'm taking to the dealer tomorrow to switch out the M6 tranny fluid to Synchromax. Not wanting to jack the car sideways and have fluid shooting everywhere (according to posts on here and the ls2 forum), I thought I'd watch and learn the first time.
The rear and engine oil I'll do myself.
Hey, no prob. Your comment about AutoZone cracked me up too :cheershardball75006 said:I am sorry too. I guess it just got under my skin a little bit.

I'm going to eat a pound of mushrooms and smoke two joints...I still doubt I will understand what the heck you were asking...or stating.74Goat said:I do hear Royal Purple is good, my car will over after being in stop and go traffic sometimes, or the temp. will fly up over 230, which sucks, but someone recommended that Royal Purple oil. Or i could just buy an Aluminum Radiator to keep the car cooled off.
Sorry I'm catching this one late, been gone...What I did was become a "preferred" customer ...
