IMHO, if the dealer utilizes Rotella for the 2020-2022 Ecodiesel and the engine fails then they are liable for repair/replacement. However, if we (the owners) utilize it and the engine fails, then you can bet FCA will claim we were not utilizing the spec oil. This is especially critical if...

Agreed. The Mopar oil purchased from the dealerships is a waste of money. I looked at my dealer (when he sat a case of Pennzoil on the counter and quoted me a ridiculous price) and asked him if he was aware I could get the same Pennzoil from Amazon cheaper. He stated yes but that I’d have ti...

The approved oils that I can get which meet the MS-12991 and API SN spec are as follows (there are others, but these are what I can readily obtain): Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5W-40 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TXFCC3Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) FRAM Full Synthetic...

No, I knew yours was free based upon your post and tried to respond to both the Op and you in one post. I tried to be efficient by using your bill as an example and I failed miserably - was sitting in the Vets office moth my dog and shouldn’t try to walk and chew gum at the same time. 😉 You...

$55 for a Hemi…correct? No comparison to the cost of an Ecodiesel as the filters alone are a lot more expensive than the Hemi oil filters.

The answer is they will charge as much as they can if you’ll pay for it. Look for coupons on their website or FCA website. You’ll still overpay but you can save a little. It appears they charged you $14.35 a quart for 8 quarts but the Ecodiesel takes 8.5 so you’re most likely 1/2 a quart low...

Sorry to hear about that. What were you experiencing to cause you to take it in? What oil pressure were you seeing? Was oil pressure low at idle, at highway speeds or ??? Your answer can help us respond with a more coherent, applicable response. If you say you're seeing 20 at idle, that's...

That brought a smile to my face as I've been guilty of doing the same thing! I'm surprised in fifteen seasons of The Red Green Show that Red Green never tackled the age-old issue of block heater extension cords dragging behind vehicles as they're going down the road. I have no doubt he would...

No, not worth it...in fact, no claws here...still waiting for the link to his posting to prove the data. Still nothing of his link... Not a problem at all...I'm waiting to be schooled on exactly where Ram trucks are the 5th most stolen vehicle in the U.S. in 2020 but the professor appears to...

Please post the link and not a screen shot...I find nothing on NICBs website to indicate 2020 MY Rams were the 5th most stolen vehicles in 2020...only the poor quality screen shot posted above.

Here is an article with pictures...maybe this will help. https://www.motortrend.com/news/vehicle-thefts-2020-pickup-trucks/

Did you happen to read what you posted - and wrote "In 2020, Ram Pick-ups are number 5 in the US" That statement is BS! Ford and Chevrolet are still the top stolen trucks in the U.S. - NOT RAM! Ram is 10th per the website with the most common year stolen being the 2001 model year!

This debate This data is not what is reflected on the National Insurance Crime Bureau's website. Ram is in 10th place...not 5th. And it stands to reason the TRX guys would be concerned...who in their right mind would steal a lower trim level and risk going to prison for a Tradesman, Big Horn...

Can you hear any sounds of a vacuum? If you had a leak you should be able to hear it. Well, my daughter drained her UPR and left the valve open. She started the truck and it ran perfectly. My Son just happened to be standing there and he could hear a high pitched vacuum sound, had her pop...

You have the hoses hooked up correctly? And the ball valve on the bottom of the catch can (the drain valve) is closed correct? I never saw any loss of MPGs with it and my Daughter has the exact same set up that I installed - with no loss in MPGs. My bet is you have a loose hose or the drain...

You too? Me and my wife as well. This crap has become as common as the common cold. Hope you start feeling better soon.

Thanks. I just want to be certain the average reader who reads substandard grammar understands the oil you and I have both purchased - as well as others- is complaint with the spec. And most of us including J-Cooz comprehends a “good 5w40 synthetic oil” is subjective and the only thing that...

I recommend you both get better informed on that oil as it meets the spec! I’ve utilized it for previous changes and it meets spec MS-12991. There is no gamble - a uninformed ridiculous statement to make!

Sir, you are obviously a Husker fan...I have to strongly disagree with you simply based upon principle. Boooomer Sooooner and Hook 'em Horns! ;) P.S. My coworkers are both Petroleum Engineers from Texas A&M who have been in the business since the late 1970’s. I’ll continue to trust their word…

I've had my Hellwig sway bar on for the past year and it was starting to get that "Hellwig squeak". For anyone who might encounter this, I was instructed by two coworkers who encountered the same issue to utilize the following Valvoline synthetic grease with moly (and yes it did the job and...
