    Longevity
    By  RON,  a  Verified Buyer  from  SoCal  on  June 23, 2024
    The oil more than meets expectations and being rated for 25k miles or 1 year is amazing on its own! Being that I drive this vehicle less than 6,000 miles a year, I guess I will be doing the annual oil change! So far, the motor seems to idle and run smoother and not stay in the high pressure state as long! I will definitely buy this again!
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
