    2013 Chrysler T&C / Penn. Full Sythetic 5w20 / 3,755(89,155)miles

    Here's my first UOA on my wife's minivan. Everything seems good and I likely won't run another UOA again for some time, but I figured ppl might want more data on 3.6 Pentastar engines. This one has about 90k miles on it. Nearly 10 years old. Only weird thing was that the "change oil" light...

    2013 Ram 1500, 5.7L, 85k, PP(?) 5w-20, 2000 miles

    Just got my first UOA in from Blackstone. It's a short interval mainly because I had some concerns about hemi tick and I didn't know what the dealer put in it when I bought it in February. Would love to have any feedback on my numbers. I know 2k is short, but I'm pretty worried about the tick I...
