Hit him up then and use the OE for the factory intervals. Hell even if you don't use the oil, use the filter.

Seriously where is RaVAging shitholes? Play on RVA?

Seriously, you don't even change your own oil?

If you're looking for meets minimums Amsoil makes the OE line for factory drain intervals, but I assumed you weren't.

You know what's great about this post? Nothing. Keep up the Amsoil fanboi though.

1) Check to make sure you have enough oil in it.
2) Maybe change brands of oil. Sometimes that can mess up the TCT.

I had mine low on oil once by a quart and started getting the noise. Put some oil in it and it went away.

I use Motul 10w40 and a Purolator PureOne filter in mine.

Honda isnt putting synthetic oil in it for $30.

I shouldn't have to tell you where I used to work (a known performance shop), and I work on cars daily. We sold Amsoil for about 1.5 months. It was too expensive, and you really only get the benefit of it using the "special" filter. Hell, we didn't even use it in our race motors/cars.

F1, NASCAR, V8 super cars typically don't run Amsoil unless they are "sponsored". I don't know of any manufacture who specifies the use of Amsoil either. The average consumer will never see the benefit of running it, and the weekend racer won't use it due to the expense, where either the oil is changed after every pass, or after each track weekend.

Do I need to mention that anyone can sell it? Amsoil is the motorsport version of Vemma.
