GM Duramax 3.0 oil consumption

[dbphillips]

Guys, manufacturers and engineers know best. If GM says it’s normal than I’m sure a hoard of engineers carefully reviews and studied the problem and deemed it OK. No manufacturer would make a statement that is not backed by cold, hard facts. Their reputation is at stake here.

Just keep giving them $70-$100k for these trucks and be glad they sold you one.

lol, ever heard of a little company called VW that was run by a Nazi in the 21st century?

I disagree 100 percent with that statement!

BITOG needs a sarcasm emoji. Pretty sure KrisZ disagrees 100%, too.

Yes that would be useful. And yes, I 100% disagree with my statement too.

Didn’t US throw a hero parade to one Nazi that worked on rockets?
Most skilled/influential Nazis didn’t disappear after the war, they blended in.

“Reformed” Nazi.

Piech was not reformed.

If I bought one of these new, the first thing I would do, is hook it up a 9,000lb trailer.
Then run the crap out of it and load it hard.
That will seat the rings nicely.

That is the opposite of what every manual I've ever read says.
