Wow, people think they feel a difference after an oil change? If you feel a difference... you waited way too long to change your oil. Our mind plays wonderful tricks on us... I thought those of us here would be smarter lol.

I think you are not sensitive enough.

Add some chrome and see how much faster your car feels.

Why else would they make chrome accessories areas like the differential cover? (wink)
 
What’s your theory for a transmission with dirty old fluid somehow outlasting a properly serviced one?

Don’t you think that the transmission would be a sealed unit if it was truly lifetime? Why would mazda allow you to change the transmission pan (which contains a filter) if it’s “life time?” You know, the best part is that BMW says the fluid is life-time, but when you go onto ZF’s website the first thing they say is that they recommend a fluid change every 60-75K depending on driving conditions. The ZF unit has the exact same pan design as the skyactiv unit - one of the many reasons you bet your ass I’ll be flushing my transmission.

Hey no antagonizing.
