Yes I did. It ended up being the front sway bar bushings that were too worn out. I got some prothane bushings from JEGS and problem solved! Oh and it handled the road much better with those too. Cheers

Definately. I have been using their synthetics for over 7 years now with really good results. Obvisouly it would have been different if the warranty claim would have gone the other way. Yes I bought it used it had 120K Km's on it at the time. It Blew up at 190K and I had been using the EA057...

I just got back home an there was an Amsoil letter on the counter. I opened it, and guess what........................ Oh Yes........................................ it was............ a beautiful check for the total amount of $4,423.39!!! They covered every cent I put into replacing the...

Getting closer... I just came back from the shop, the damage to the bearings is pretty apparent. The races actually spun inside the bearing caps. I just sent these pictures off to AMSOIL. Lets wait and see...

Good news!!! Well pressuring them some more definitely changed things around. A day after sending a [very direct] email, they came back in less than a day and confirmed they would reimburse all expenses as long as I could provide pictures of the damaged bearings/rod bearing. Gee, but weren't...

Quick update. Still no news after 2 other emails and a voicemail I sent in the past 2 weeks. I figure 2 months should be enough for testing an oil filter so I will be pressuring them much more this week. So far I am not impressed on their customer service and I'm getting a bit worried...

update I just got an update from Amsoil yesterday, they are not the quickest to reply as I sent two emails and a voice mail before they got back to me. The good thing is they claimed my oil test passed (I believe the test was to confirm Amsoil oil was used) and they are now waiting for...

Well as some that have seen my post might know, I blew my engine due to a faulty oil filter. My replacement motor came with a bunch of parts already attached so here is what I have extra: 2004 1GRFE (V6) wiring harness (my replacement engine is an 04 and there was one connector different from...

Not that I disagree especially after what's happened to me, but I thought it was pretty conservative driving fairly less than Amsoil actually guaranteed. I definitely wont do that again that's for sure! Anyway, quick update: I found out on Amsoil's website they actually have a filter limited...

update Today I went to my mechanic and made him fully aware of the situation. It now made much more sense to him that this was the cause to engine failure. He fully agreed to write me an affidavit letter stating the reasons why he felt the engine died (oil starvation), that the engine was...

Hi Guys, Two weeks ago I was heading out to Revelstoke for one good last weekend of sledding, towing my little 2-place trailer on the Transcanada highway. Barely 30 miles in, after going up a hill I notice the gear won't kick back from 2nd to 3rd even going downhill, then engine reving way up...

Yeah pretty much, I kinda feel the clunking through the floor, but it's very light. Just by looking at the upper strut bumpers everything seems fine, but is there a particular way to check this without raising the whole vehicle off the ground? I have 145,000 km on it, and it's been driven in...

Pads were changed recently but it makes a heavy clunking noise, not too certain if loose pads would do that?

No it happens when I drive straight too. I can hear it mostly at low speeds, below 30MPH.
