Great experience with Redline synthetic oil.

I feel obligated to post about my good experiences with Redline Oil.

I've used their oils, gear lubes, and injector cleaners in lots of family vehicles for many years.

Their products have consistently been the best I've tried. Cars have run smoother, used less oil, and shifted better when I use their products.

But what really impressed me, and compelled me to post, is the commitment to the customer that Redline has demonstrated.

When I had some special use questions and asked for extraordinary customer service.... the owner of the company provided personal service and answered my questions

Great customer service is when the company dazzles you!

And Redline came through!

This is the best sort of combination of great products and genuine commitment to the customer.

A quick Google shows that Vailchalet posted this to at least 6 newsgroups. Is it just me, or does this smell of a commercial, not personal, endorsement?

I run cheap oil (Castrol usually) and change it every 5,000 miles and my one '95 Legacy has over 300,000 without an oil related issue.. My othe r two Legacys ('99 SUS, '95 sedan) have 210,000 and 110,000 respectivly and have had no problems but I did get those two used. I think the main thing is to have the crankcase full of oil. TG

Clean oil! I change my Subie's oil more frequently than you (3000-3500 miles but the engine's got 340k "less than babied" miles--lots of dirt roads), the g/f changes her "new" Honda at 5,000 like you. I've run Castrol GTX in most of my engines, she runs it in hers, no complaints from either of us. I wouldn't say it's "cheap" oil just cuz it's dino oil. Synthetics have their place, though in my experience they may be a bit overrated. It would be fun to take two cars as identical as possible, fill one with synthetic, the other with dino oil, and take off to do a real life head to head, identical driving, identical oil changes, filters, other maintenance: no guessing! Anyone got any spare grant money laying around?
