I was just wondering if anyone here has installed an aftermarket radio system that has nav/bluetooth. I really want the new Kenwood dnx696. I has dvd/bluetooth/nav in the system. I think they also make a GM kit so that onstar would work for it. I think sirius and xm would also required a separate module. I think this would look sweet in my new truck and the head unit can be had for around $670 on ebay. If you have installed a similar system, tell me if you feel it's worth it. How much do you think the installation will cost to install this?

  I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method. They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!

  I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.

  I would not argue that with you. It would be pointless to argue against the truth and you speak the truth. My question and in fact the entire point of this thread is an exploration into the levers of wear which happens no matter how well we maintain our powertrains. Some of these levers we exert a good deal of influence over which can and do result is lower wear, longer powertrain life. Some others we are sort of stuck with. An engine is typically done when the ring to bore seal no longer is able to do the job effectively. Normally the first thing to go in a engine otherwise well maintained and adult driven is this seal. Looking into the means, methods, products and attitudes that influence the rate of wear seems a worthwhile inquiry to me.

  try tapping the pump lightly and see if it starts, if it doesn't then the pump needs replaced, i think it will put the engine in limp mode if you drive it

  I wouldn't do any DIY sealing. I'm thinking they need to "breathe" and need venting to allow them to dry. I've never looked into them but I'd leave it as designed.
