@1swederide The worlds first and only 2015 Volvo V60 Polestar Fully Upgraded to AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Lubricants!

AMSOIL Advantage Low Noack oil volatility % reduces engine oil consumption and reduces the amount of “crankcase oil vapour” that gets drawn into the intake via engine vacuum from the PCV system. This reduces or eliminates oil residue coating the inside of your intercooler, throttle body, intake manifold, and on the intake valves. This also helps

Below is a guide you can follow to crack the code of what “Lifetime” transmission fluid means and figure out what the actual service interval is for your vehicle. Here are the key points you need to understand about transmission fluid. REMEMBER THIS: Severe service is typically 1/2 the milage of regular service. Below is

AMSOIL Advantage Frictional Properties and Anti-Shudder Performance AMSOIL transmission fluid is fully fortified with friction modifiers engineered to deliver outstanding clutch-holding capacity, torque-transfer and anti-shudder performance over the life of the fluid.  The coefficient of friction (how two surfaces behave relative to their movement against one another) is a major factor in shift quality, and

In this post we will be comparing Volvo 31256775 Transmission Fluid vs. AMSOIL Signature Series Fuel-Efficient 100% Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid For TF-80SC and TG-81SC transmissions. Both of these transmission fluids meet JWS 3324, AW-1 and WS fluid specifications that are required for Aisin Gen2 TF80SC and TG81SC transmissions.  But did you know there are

Turbochargers typically operate at speeds ranging from 80,000 to 200,000+ revolutions per minute (rpm). The actual speed at which a turbocharger spins will depend on a number of factors, including the engine size and design, the size of the turbocharger, and the amount of boost pressure being generated. In general, turbochargers on smaller engines will

Turbochargers can get very hot during operation, as they are subjected to high temperatures and pressures. The temperature of the exhaust gases flowing through the turbine can reach up to 1,000 degrees Celsius (1,832 degrees Fahrenheit) or more, and the temperature of the compressed air being fed into the engine can reach up to 200

Oxidation occurs when the addition of oxygen changes a chemical substance. Take an apple, for example, which quickly turns brown when cut due to oxygen.  Metal also succumbs to oxidation, sometimes in just a matter of hours. Have you ever noticed your brakes grinding after letting your car sit for the day in wet weather?
