So Stupid It's Funny
 

I was going to have my oil changed at the dealer this mourning but the 6.7 requires a special low ash oil and they didn't have any of it. You would think that if a company was going to sell a truck that required a special oil they might actually keep a little in the back some where.:D I am through getting frustrated now I just laugh.

Go to Wally world. Shell Rotella is CJ-4 compliant. It's 8.88 a gallon. They also have the Mopar filter for the 5.9 (maybe same one for 6.7) for 9 bucks or so.

Hell, we've had that stuff in our shop since december.

You still in the Pac NW? If so let me know and I'll send you out to my dealer - - they got everything in stock for the new trucks.

Naw I am in LA and in the mourning the goat and trailer is headed to Oklahoma. It will be the first time my truck has been home. It will be the first time I drove home since December.

Yea, the Cummin's website says:

No Mobil 1 oils meet CES 200801 standards, nor do they meet CJ-4, and their sulfated ash content is above 1%.
The only Rotella oil that seems to be under 1% (or, 1% max) is Rotella T triple protection 15W-40 and 10W-30, and those are also the only ones advertised as being for the ULSD, and the only that meet CJ-4.

valvoline blue is whats in it right now thats what cummins puts in at the factory, I took that right off the cummins news letter. If you read the bottle it states specifically designed for the cummins motor and is cummins approved. Its a couple bucks more than the rotella

Why buy anything at the steelership

The Mopar P/N for the 6.7 is the same as for the 5.9, a friend was wanting me to split a case with him and I read the p/n direct from the removed filter on my 6.7.
These dealers are not really up to speed on this new model, must have been some secrets that the OEM didn't want to share so they really don't know much about the new 6.7 or the 6 speed tranny.
Just sell em and see what happens next attitude!
