I put it into the smart and 500km it was black so I never will use mobil 1.
The K&N will not make the oil change black that quick

yes life sucks, $hit happen so no 1 is going to kill you

don't go to international school, they are no good. :thumbsdown:
I was going to send my kids to international school, but alot of ppl say it dose more bad than good to the kid.
but of course there are some good 1s but very hard to get in.
Ask Billhk he is the pro on the kids school
That's true, but I don't think my daughter can get into those good private schools as she doesn't has any history in HK and typically HK kids are much smarter than North America kids "academically" so she doesn't stand a chance. That's why I have no choice but to put her into international school. Otherwise she will end up in some bad public schools. What do you think Billhk?
