First oil change in my 2020 GT/CS at 1320 miles (tee-hee). Castrol Edge full synthetic in 5W-30 flavor and one 300ml bottle of original flavor Ceratec.
Before - Shake, rattle, and roll. I though it was just the DI system and the ubiquitous 5.0 noises. Maaaaybe had the BBQ tick...maybe. It didn't really bother me too much. I just didn't want it to get any worse.
After - Markedly different...no clicks, rattles, or ticks! As soon as I turned it over I noticed the difference. Truly sounds like two different motors!
The old oil was as black as the Castrol jugs. I puddled some on white paper and floated it around a bit under strong light and there appears to be no floaties. Sweet!
I'd like to choke the dumb ass that designed the filter location and what is up with the shorty factory filter? It's a little stubby thing. Probably saved a dime.
