    Is M1 the only 0W-40 that is approved for SP, A40 and LL-01?

    They are always changing labels and marketing. M1 seems they don’t change their labels much. Castrol synthetic used to be called Syntec. They should have kept that name. Edge is lame AF

    I have never had an issue with a K&N. I also don’t allow them to get bad nor do I over oil them. I clean them every 20k miles. K&N says go way longer than that. In other vehicles I’ve used them like in my 2004 Camry. When I got rid of it, it had over 380k miles on it. I don’t care about the hp...

    The E-Torq is there. I hit the switch at every start up and disable it.

    I went ahead and changed the oil 130 miles. There was some shinny metal in the filter. The oil came out like water and was a yellowish/green color. I’m assuming that’s graphite assembly lube. Mobil 1 0/40 went in. And dang it ran smoother Also installed K&N air filter and 1 bottle of Redline...

    The problem with the owners manual is their recommendations are based on CAFE. They don’t want you to change oils. “Save the planet thinking”

    No fluid is lifetime. They only want to get through the warranty. It might last that then die.

    Hey guys. What about the trans? I know in Honda it’s super easy. Bc of their history. I always changed it every 15,000 religiously and never had any transmission problems even at 300,000 miles. Do you recommend I do the same thing in this new truck every 15,000 go ahead and change the...

    One thing I do like this 3.6 is not direct injection it’s a timing chain engine. And I feel way more secure with Euro Spec 0/40 bc of the timing chain requirements that the euro mfg requires

    Hello all I just purchased a brand new Ram 1500 with the V6 with the big Memorial Day weekend sales event. The vehicle left the lot with 45 miles on it. This engine does have a timing chain and plan on running Mobil 1 0/40 in it. At what mileage should I change the oil for the first time? Yes...

    Long OCI

    The problem with oil change places, they use the cheapest OF they can get. I would never run one of those ever. They maybe good for 5k
