Some of them are Snake Oil, but some of them do provide additional lubricity to the fuel which keeps high pressure fuel pumps and injection pumps happy, and others have detergents/dispersants that help keep your injector nozzles clean. They're all either cheap insurance, or a placebo to keep your mind at ease. I second what Rebelguy2020 says, do your own research and see if any of them are right for you!Can someone explain what additives like hotshot and other additives are supposed to help or improve?
I am at 65K on my 2021 Laramie. Only had the Rear Parking Sensors stop working, the Minor recalls, and then there is the HPFP Recall.You guys have me worried that I'll never get to use my 125,000 mile Mopar warranty. I'm at 53,000 on my 2022 and haven't had any issues.
On one of the other EcoDiesel forum's a member posted very positive oil analysis results after using Castrol for about 6000 miles. It was better than Pennzoil reports and much better than the Quaker state reports.I'm at 96k miles, no tune (yet). No issues here and still waiting on HPFP recall to be completed. I do my own servicing, no fuel additives and its been a great vehicle so far. Still on original brakes and they look like they aren't even at 50%.
Oil change every 5-7k miles. Started with Pennzoil, then lots of Quaker state and now I'm on Castrol. No real reason for changing oil brands, bought a ton of Quaker state when it was on sale and I've always run Castrol in my other vehicles so when I saw they had an oil at Walmart that met the spec i decided to switch.
thxs to emissions. … question is the intake geting replaced or whole engine ?I have a 2021 Limited, 78k miles and my truck went in for a check engine light. It has a clogged intake manifold with soot and it needs replaced.
As someone who is right behind you in mileage, I’m a little anxious. How often did you change your oil? Did you go by mileage or by meter in the gauge cluster?I have a 2021 Limited, 78k miles and my truck went in for a check engine light. It has a clogged intake manifold with soot and it needs replaced.
