I changed my pads a few months ago. It had been 9 years. The rotors were smooth and I didn’t notice any pits or scuffing.
How is the car running? I would flush the cooling system and clean the reservoir tank, then watch the system to see if the oil returns. If so, you may have a head gasket issue.
im not a fan of thumbs up or thumbs down. i think it’s better for people to write their opinion and to comment about why they like something or why they don’t

you can use your vin or just open the hood and look on the engine itself. mine’s a 1999 civic and that’s where it’s at.
It also helps to have some knowledge how your car works. I bought a haynes manual and did some reading just to get an idea of how components work and the signs and symptoms of typical component failures. It helps a lot when trying to diagnose a problem. And when your at the dealer/shop you can understand a little bit of what’s going on when the mechanic is explaining what the problem is. Your less likely to be had.
It’s not a car movie, but I like the James Bond movie where Roger Moore is driving a Ferrari or so and running away from the bad guys and drives into the water and it converts into a mini sub.
What ever type of oil the car has been using, stick to that one. Synthetic oils are good and I would use them if the car I have had been using them from the beginning. If it’s a high mileage car, I would think twice about using synthetics since they are thinner.

I like it. The video quality is good. Maybe you can get a vehicle lift. Make it easier on you to work on your cars and film too. And a tall tripod camera stand to help you out.
I would bleed the brakes at all wheels. This will make sure all the air is out of the lines and you can also replace the fluid while doing this. Just don’t let the master cylinder go dry other wise you will have to start the bleeding process all over again. Also make sure you don’t set the parking brake or step on the brakes with the drums off other wise you will squirt hydraulic fluid all over the place. And after you replace your wheel cylinder and re-install your brake shoes, make sure you check the parking brake cable and re-adjust it accordingly otherwise your regular braking won’t be as effective.
