    Hi all, I need to buy a new oil filter and subsequent oil for my 2018 Laramie. Most places I've seen say that the part "68229402AA" is what is used for the truck, but then on Mopar's Store it states: "important information 68229402aa cannot be used on Ram 1500 (dt) or jeep Wrangler (jl) with...

    Having difficulty getting the recommended oil. 5W-40 T6. I can 15w-40 everywhere but not sure it’s a good idea to use it.
  3. RAM 1500 Diesel Maintenance
    Hi, Did an oil change last weekend and definitely messed some things up. On my last oil change, I likely overtightened the drain plug while trying to get to the 33 ft/lb spec, and this time I put this thing in place of my old drain plug...

  8. RAM 1500 Diesel Maintenance
    Went in for my second oil change yesterday. Of course, every service writer in the place was new. The dealership can't seem to hang on to anyone that knows anything. Me: Please be sure to use the correct oil, Penzoil Euro L meeting the MS11106 spec per the manual. NOt the bulk oil, not the...
