I have owned plenty of cars, turbo, non-turbo, diesel and unleaded and to be honest I think 15,000 ks on the same oil is excessive i don't care what people say about new oils. My Triton only has 5,000 on it and the oil is already black.
Where can you get these easy oil drain valves from? Fumato ones??
I think I will change mine at 7,500

It's black because of the EGR system. There's a blank that will fix that...

Err... Not quite, it is black because the the detergent/disperant additives in the oil keep carbon (soot) in suspension. The egr blank wont stop the oil going black, just slows it down a little.

Cos that's what the service intervals are on all of our heavy vehicle engines like Cat, Cummins and Mack and we are talking about engines that run 470-620hp and run 30psi turbo boost and work 24/7 and have 800000-1.4 million klms on them without engine rebuilds .
think it goes without saying that you change the filter with the oil mateyRobo1 wrote:Why would you put 60.00 oil in motor and drop dirty oil from the filter in the clean stuff doesn't figure for me change one change both
