    When adding Lucas Synthetic Stabilizer?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Just ordered my Front Brakes and Synthetic Oil Change Pkg from ECS today!
    Basically, my 30v has the infamous lifter tick mainly at idle after warmup.
    It has 66k miles and sounds like it needs a little restoration. So I picked up some of the lucas synthetic oil stabilizer to throw in with my oil change.
    My question to you guys is how much would you recommend to put in with my synthetic 0w40? 1/2qt? full qt?
    TIA guys

    From their web site
    How much Lucas Pure Synthetic Oil Stabilizer do I need?
    Lucas Pure Synthetic Oil Stabilizer can be used as follows:

    Engines: approximately 20% of the oil mixture, usually one quart per oil change

    Important Note: A quart of Lucas Synthetic Oil Stabilizer is used in place of a quart of oil. Do not overfill your vehicle by adding an extra quart of stabilizer.

    Yeah I just changed my front brakes (Mintex Red Box) and did the Oil change.
    Overall I'm very happy with it, still some noise but I assume it probably takes a few times driving around to really affect the internals. Brakes feel amazingly better plus my old pads were almost to the metal! good thing the Change brakes light came on! Which btw looks like a circle with a couple blocks around each side. I'm like wtf does that mean lol.. audi ftw
