    i simply buy the cheapest oil i can get my hands on at walmart or autozone or where ever, then i put that in after draining the old oil out. Then i drive the car normal for 5 mins then drive it hard for another 10 mins. Bring it back home.....drain it out while it's still hot and put regular oil i use/new filter in. I do this every 15k miles and when i go a good bit over my oil life. Everytime i do it...i can feel the difference...engine running smother.

    cheapest oil = gas station oil? do u get the same oil weight? and use the old oil filter until u are doing the real oil change?

    yea cheapest shiit i can get my hands on. And yes i use the same weight and old filter until i do the real oil change.

    U can buy 5 qts of something techron (blue can) from walmart for about $5.XX.

    Do this with full service...plugs, tranny flush, radiator flush, fuel system cleaner (forgot what they use to blow out the carbon outta the system), replace all filter and you'll love ur car.
