I never thought to find a forum on oil. I came across this quite by accident. great place!
just looking to do my first oil change on my vehicle.it has the 3.6vvt motor, AWD transmission and oil is just showing signs of impurities.
of course, the owners manual says only Chrysler motor oil. I just want to know the best 5w-20 since it's colder and decent price-wise. the dealer did something to the oil filter (maybe cross-threaded it. it leaks about a drop or 2 nightly. unfortunately, it drips on the drive belt and causes a lot of squeaking in the morning when it starts.
I am not bringing it back there ever to fix it and it could be some other bolt or something not tightened down properly since I did find a loose nut up front about to work itself off. I decided an oil change would be in order while I investigate the leak issue.
tía.
at any rate, greetings! glad to have found this place
