My WC wrench buddy has always sold ELF oil, loves it. I put it in the DD's works fine.
About a year ago they changed the name to Total, I wonder who's marketing genius came up with this wonderfully exciting name. Now there changing to FUCHS...who's going to want oil that fuchs your engine? Love the rims...but the name as a brand name? doesn't translate well in english.

Maybe I am confusing them but the logos are real close...but then I am half blind. |
