Another thing, anyone notice that the oil life meter is a little off? At 3000 miles my meter said i was at 70 something percent. I looked at the manual and it said change oil every 3000 miles and the computer was way off. Can anyone explain that?

I got 5 wix/napa gold filters from fleetfilters.com, delivered for 26.38.
I don't know if wix is better than ac delco, my guess is they're probably about the same. The guys over at
www.bobistheoilguy.com like the wix filters.
I'm trying to find a cheap but strong (and high temperature rated) oil filter magnet to see if it collects any metallic debris on the cannister. There's no way I'm paying $40-60 for one of those "filtermagnets".
