6.2L 0W40 Beta Test Poll

[AXE]

So the 6.2L 0W40 oil and filler cap swap is well underway and we have seen our first beta testers take action. I thought now would be a good time to have a poll and see who's motor grenades first after the "upgrade". Get your votes in fast, nobody know when someone will get their participation trophy!

IF the bitch blows up, at least it's under warranty and I will get the NEW, Improved...same engine as before lol. Definitely no sarcasm there.

That's why I'm not really bothered by it all. Maybe we get lucky and get a good motor.

I won’t be bothered by it for 6 years and up to 99950 miles lol. I went ahead and changed mine just cause it was due. On top of that, if by some miracle it slowed the self destruction of the engine down or maybe I have a good one and it just helps more, I’m ok with that. I will say though this has been the oddest engine for all this crap I have owned.

My truck is due for an oil change too. Gonna do it this coming weekend. Will use the new and improved Mobil 1 Supercar 0w-40 and hope for the best. What do you all think about using an oil additive, such as Lucas? It helps prevent dry cold starts. Or do you think it will just cause more problems?

I Know there are some others running oil additives on here. Not sure they are that beneficial with modern synthetic oils.

I've never used oil additives, but use fuel additives. I trust Lucas and use their grease and some other products.

Lucas and BG are the only options I would consider. I've used Lucas oil treatment in a number of my past vehicles and it seems to work great. Even helped my fuel mileage slightly. But didn't wanna put it in this 6.2L if it's gonna fuck it up even more.

Hi Guys, I mentioned in the oil analysis thread that in Australia, the local distributor changes to 5w-30 on the first oil change "to suit local conditions" but they are still grenading. No mention of a new oil filter cap of course, what's that about?
