I put Shell Rotella T6 in. I did have some quiet ticking on cold start (could also hear it when warm when close to a building). Nice and quiet, now.
Happy for now...we will see.

I missed the "AND" in your opening statement...I read "changed the oil for the first time in it's life" and thought...WTF? It's funny how your brain can skip over a word that is so totally absolutely relevant; even worse, I must have read the post 5 times trying to figure out how you never changed the oil. Lol.

And now I await the obligatory oil comments....

Here is a no kidding statement a friend of mine said: " I never change the oil in my Car and have never had any maintenance done on it, I just drive it" he owns a Lexus convertible, not sure how the hell its still running, but I couldn't believe that statement as we were discussing having my car maintenance done. I am certainly gad to know not to purchase any machinery from him!!!!

Is your friend’s car a leased car that will become Certified Pre-Owned?
