You've got to be kidding!!!!
As far as the filter goes, Mobil1 or WIX all the way, smaller micron, better built filters. I use an M1-301 on mine--the 1-quart size. Synthetic of almost any kind far surpasses virtually any consumer available dino oil out there. I personally use Amzoil in mine, but Mobil, Royal Purple and the others are great too.
No, you don't have to flush the system either, just change like normal and you're good to go. I change mine every 6k miles with a filter change at 3k. Currently have 52K on mine and it still runs like new.

 

Best to break your engine in with dino oil before going to synthetic, That's what my Dodge dealer told me, Dodge dealers will not lose money servicing, they carry synthetic oil as well as dino oil and are more than happy to have you pay extra.

I switched to mobile one, and my truck runs a lot better, you don't gain any extra time betwean oil changes, you still have to check your oil to see if it's dirty and decide not by the owners manual, but the condition of your oil.

The Ram SRT needs synthetic oil, so how is synthetic going to harm or viod warenty covergae, just make sure you use 5/20.

 

I thought that you had to keep the oil in (barring the condition of the oil, I'm not so dumb as to leave the oil in if it looks like ****) for the time frame recommended (such as 7500 or whatever) because of the how the protection is not constant, and improves during use (kinda like a curve on the graph, the worst at both ends and the best in the middle).

 

I like napa gold filters, and mobil 1 when I had my hemi.

 

Dodge viper use 0/40 mobil oil and the P/T turbro use 10/30 mobil, so as long its 5/20w then it shouldn't be a problem. Mobil oil is synthetic, and I'll bet your dealer sell it over the counter. And so I don't leave out the crossfire lovers, Mobil oil too.

When you change your oil, cut into half or thereabouts,a 2 or 3 liter soft drink bottle.
With the screw cap downover, slide it over your oil filter after you have loosened it slightly.
Then push the bottle all the way up your filter and continue to unscrew the filter off.
As the filter comes away from the engine block, the old oil in the filter will be caught in the pop bottle and not dribble all down your arm and onto your drive.[:@]
You can then undo the screw cap from the pop bottle and drain the waste into a suitable container.
No mess and all nicely done.
Hope this helps?

Thats a great idea thanks for the post!

 

That soft drink bottle is a great idea oil always gets all over the rack as its right under the filter this will make that a thing of the past.

 

mobil 1. every upper end, sports car, etc all recommend it

 

I have been using Mobil 1 synthetic for over a year and a half now in my Dodge without any issues. I use a Wix filter exclusively. I have used Mobil 1 for about ten years now; in a Toyota truck and three Jeeps, and never had a problem.
