I dont care what your junk science says. 10k miles is just too far. Just do the bare minimum on maintenance. I damn sure don’t want to buy any of your cars. Oil gets dirty. Why do you think it turns black? If is carbon on the oil. You are playing with fire.
you stupid crap is getting old. Nobody can reason with someone like you. You are the type that does the bare minimum when it comes to maintenance. I bet you are lazy too and make all your coworkers carry you. I pitty any guy you sell your vehicles to. They will be total junk.
it is not the same thing. The other post was an engine damaged by lack of oil changes. This one is showing the difference between a well maintained engine and one that isn’t.
Hybrids can benefit from pre-oiling too. Every time that engine stops, the oil goes back down into the oil pan. They are more trouble than they are worth.
I bet you ride your tires down to the cords too. I said 5-6k miles. I wouldn't go over 6k. Your hybrid engine is running a lot more than half the time. Any justification you can hang on to be cheap
there is another issue you brought up with turbos. I bet most people don't let them cool down before shutting the engine off which is important after you drive them hard. I bought a preoiler about 30 years ago and it seemed to be more trouble than was worth. It is a good idea but I bet few do...
3000 mile oil changes is not throwing it away when you have a turbo that cooks the oil. 5-6k miles is good all others. Hybrid or not. It is cheap insurance if you want it to last. But i guess you plan on dumping it on some dumb smuck before the engine is toast. 10000 is way too many miles unless...
I bet you haven't torn down one engine to see what it looks like inside after you abused it like that. My dad has and so has Brian. He does it every day
Anyway, you can justify abusing your vehicle and not changing your oil. I will never buy a car from someone like you. Every time that engine stops, all the oil starts to flow back in the pan. When you restart, you have metal on metal until the oil gets pumped back to the top of the engine. You...
You really don’t know how much that engine is running. There is some idling even when it is in electric mode. Most of us aren’t going to get 50% of our miles on electric. The best most of us will do is 40%. If isn’t wise to push that oil to the limits it is going to get way too dirty in 10000 miles.
