Anyone use Amsoil Synthetic oil?

www.amsoil.com

They claim you can go 25k miles or 1 year per oil change. True or not?

Total cost for an oil change would be around $50.00

 

Was wondering when they'd come out with a 0W-20 equivalent. For warranty purposes, it's probably not a good idea to go such long intervals (the maintenance minder will tattle on you, and if they strip down the engine and find 20k oil, they'll call you on it), but past that... well, it's your car Amsoil has a very good rep in the "enthusiast" realm despite not carrying the starburst logo (i forget why they don't bother), so if they say it's good, it probably is.

 

They were the first to come out with synthetec oils I believe? I used it in my airplane, no problems. 912 Rotax engine. High RPM. H

 

I would only recommend that if you also installed a bypass filter to remove condensation and blowby contaminants

 

Folks,

I have used AMS Oil and filters in my motorcycles for a long time and always go 2-3 times longer between changes. No problems, and better for the environment!!

The main benefit of good synthetics is changing less often, but I am sure you would run into warranty issues with Honda if you did this.

Therefore with the cars, I just bring it to Honda dealer as scheduled --
