Hi all long time I have not been here. Now I have Nissan Titan XD for several years.
So what I wanted to talk about is this 5.0 Cummins engine oils. I used Valvoline oil as it was recommended and my engine gone in Michigan on one of my trips in summer time. When I checked oil it was about little more than half but 1,000 plus before it was a full mark. So Nissan replaced engines as they told spun bearing on Crankshaft.
They put same Valvoline oil so achexk oil after 1500 miles and it was about half !!!! That is made me to go ahead sign up with Amosoil so now after 3 oil changes and 25,000 miles I noticed one most important factors
1. Oil level stay a full for all 8,000 miles
2. Never added oil while use Amsoil
But it's not cheap I do 2.5 gallons gar plus 2.3 qt. So total oil price about 130 dollars
I did oil changes a just week ago and sent for the analysis. I will post the results here soon as available and you are specialists can tell me if good for 8,000 miles and can it go 10,000 miles
I don't see reason to waste a good working oil just because 8,000 miles recommended.
Thanks
