u got a new sub brother, im learning my way around cars, im 33, its never too late right
This man talks total sense..
yup! new Jaguar diesel engine oil change is every 32k km… THIRTY TWO THOUSAND KILOMETERS!!!! and it's filter is half a pop can! I do every 5k km with full synthetic, simply because it's easy to remember and less math.
The only way to get the dirt out of an engine is to replace the oil and filter. Doesn't matter what kind of oil is in the engine.
2008 dodge 2500 6.7 cummins how do you feel about fram oil filters. I pull trailers from Indiana to smithville. Change my oil every 2 weeks 10,000 km
I change my LB7 oil as soon as the computer tells me to and I believe that is about 5000 kilometers. I also have the tires rotated at the some time since there is a 95000 k warranty on them.
Wait now, you seem like a competent mechanic, and yet you're letting your wife drive around in that GM passenger car grenade with a trans just waiting to go off?! The Pontiac G6 and Aura were famous like Gen 1 Northstar or Jimmy Savile famous, the type you don't want to be.
When the oil gets black. Change it.
Rich thanks for the videos, very informative and enjoyable. I have inherited from my dad a 2004 dodge 2500 4×4 automatic 5.9 cummins 29,ooo mi garaged. using rotella oil and mopar filters. I had the underbody coated because I have seen issues with the wheel wells rusting out on these trucks. I would love to see a video on how you would do maintenance on a truck like this to get it to a million miles in the best condition possible. Any recommendations and insights on particular problems you've seen as these trucks rack up the miles would be appreciated. thanks again.
Actually oil does not start breaking down until well over 10000 Miles.
