NC-RAM, The tranny does not need oil added or filter & oil change for "life of the truck". All the "experts" say that FCA considers life of the truck to be 100,000 miles.

Replace the drain plug with a Fumato type drain valve - it makes oil draining clean and easy

I've never heard of a case where an additive impaired engine oil. I've only heard of and know of proven cases that an additive improves engine performance. The best example is with the Ford 6.0 diesel. An additive such as Archoil's AR9100 is nearly a must to preclude stiction. I use AR9100...

My main reason for the GDE tune was to shut down the EGR. My dealer's Service Manager was concerned about my low mileage (12 mos & 4690 miles) and frequent 3-4 mile "to the store" trips. He said with that kind of usage & mileage I'm headed for eventual soot, exhaust & filter problems. He said...

I have a spare stock PCM. If there is a reason to update or flash the truck's PCM my Service Manager installs my spare, flashes it and reinstalls my tuned PCM. He supports the tune and takes precautions to not flash the tuned PCM - a great Service Manager for sure! He usually charges me...

TC Diesel, You say, "There are new fuels on the market today that were NOT available when this study took place (2007)". Other than more suppliers using ethanol what are these "new fuels"? From what I have studied, all diesel has federal regulations that must be met and suppliers generally do...

I've been using GasLog and like it the best except for the fact that it shows all three of my vehicles on the same screen. I've been trying Fuel Buddy and like it even better because I can view each vehicle separetly. I paid for the Pro version to get rid of the adds and to try "trips". Trips...

Here's the dealer's DRL instructions. I was told this will work on our 2016 1500s

Jason, I have yet to change my oil but I did watch an uTube video on "how to". It showed the oil drained and cautioned to wait longer (5-15 minutes I think) as the upper area oil is slow to drain. Sure enough, after the wait more oil came pouring out. Hope this helps

jdn, 1 - I wasn't comparing engines, I was comparing C3 and E7, E9 oils. 2 - I intend to have the dealer do all work while in warranty. 3 - Not sure where you get your warranty facts. My Service Manager said the oil I plan on using would have no effect on the factory or my Mopar extended...
