    I just changed my oil, miles driven 10,300 with that oil

    The oil used was Valvoline 0 w 20 synthetic oil.

    I put in 4 quarts (so not to over fill) and about 3.7 quarts came out.

    Seems like it is good oil. But I purchased mobil 1 (0w20) on sale at $4.99 quart and this time used 4 quarts of that.

    Where did you get 0-20 for 4.99? It's 6 dollar plus at our Walmart.

    Mobil one 0W20 synthetic was on special at Schucks' / O'Rielly's auto parts for $4.99 per quart about two months ago.
