New Oil

Today I did my 9,000 mile oil change, and I love the way an evo drive after a new oil change, you never know how smooth you cars idles until you got new oil in it

? no. they idle the same.

Although, when I wash my car, my car seem to drive noticeably smoother. Accelerate faster too. It also sounds like it's having an orgasm on after wash drive. lol.

Imagine if you changed the oil and then washed it. It would be twice the rush!!!

i don't know how I would feel about Ferrari F430, since i've never had it before. I'm sure i'm not going to be the same with the Ferrari than my Evo. Ferrari would be a too much car that you'll be seperated from.

I wouldn't wash that myself or do work on it... let alone change my oil.

Don't laugh guys. I can also tell the difference in my vehicles when I change the oil. For a couple days and especially the first drive, it is smoother. I feel it in all my cars.

i have always felt that after new fluids the car seems a little more peppy. i am glad i am not alone. it may be more mental than anything. i am pretty close to an oil change (probably get to it this week) and i find myself thinking of all the hard miles the oil has in it now, and how much better the motor will feel being re-hydrated. it is like bringing new life to your car. funny stuff.

When I changed my tranny fluid, it shifted better and smoother and when I change my oil, it seems to run smoother through the RPM band for at least the first hundred miles, then I forget I changed it already.

It's true. The car feels better. Even when I change my oil and my wife does not know, my wife will ask "Did you do something to the car?". It is a noticable difference.
