    Oil is too cheap to not change often as it's a critical maintenance item for our performance cars. ~M.F
    Honestly, I believe in the tested time frames of synthetics from AMSOIL. But! Oil is too cheap to not change often. If you have a modified car, your going to want performance oil or thicker oil. Talk to your speed shop for the type you should be using. I use AMSOIL Z-rod 10w-30 and change my oil every 2,500 miles. I also use a Wix filter.

      hey there Lethal Garage. It's IMSLOOW from instagram. The Wix oil filter on their website recommends WL10290. Should I use that or the 57060? Thanks

      What got you into the habit of changing oil that early? Is it a habit carried over from conventional oil? Or is this just learned behavior from videos like this? Why not just send in a oil sample and get some feedback on oil change intervals from a certified API viscosity testing lab?

    when I do a oil change I use a pair of those yellow rubber gloves you buy to clean the bathroom. The ones that go half way down your forearm. They work great no burn and I unscrew the the oil plug until it will release quick pull it out of the way. Lethal are you using ZRod in your car 10w30. its needed for a cam. All the fluid plugs in the 5th, 6th gen and 2000-2017 Silverado and I believe All GM are 18ftlbs.

    Not sure if Wix Filters you're using has a 22psi bypass, but GM specifically requires that for the 6.2 Camaro engine. Here are my notes:
    Oil Filter: GM P/N 12640445. PF64 (AC Delco), Must have 22psi bypass!
    DO NOT use PF48 ! it has 15 psi bypass
    Napa Synthetic Platinum P/N 4100290 has a 22psi bypass.
    XG12060 (Fram UltraGuard has 19-25 psi bypass) best to use the Napa if you can’t get AC Delco.

      While AMSOIL says their oil is rated for 1 year or 25,000 miles and I believe it can truly last that long in a stock unmodified car. I still change my oil at a more rapid frequency as I have mods and oil is to cheap to not change often.

    @LethalGarage ~ Do you know if the oil that comes from the factory is a semi-blend or FULL synthetic? Just purchased a 2018 SS and getting all the intel I can. Also, Is that Aimsoil and Wix Filter approved by GM? Don't want any warranty issues. Thanks...

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  6 років тому

      The oil meets their requirements, but not sure if GM says it’s approved. Also not sure what oil is in the car on delivery. I dumped it after 500 miles and out fresh stuff in

      @@Lethalgarage Who is "their requirements" that you're referring to... meaning weight requirements or something else? Based on your answer, looks like I need to inquire to dealership as to whether Aimsoil is approved by GM. If it isn't, not sure why anyone would use it while under warranty?

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  6 років тому +1

      I know hundreds of people using it, not issues from GM. But the requirements from GM are the oil must meet Dexos2 requirements.

      The oil that sponsors them and the oil they actually use are not the same. Never trust sponsors on a race car. Just because we're sponsored it does not mean that's the products we use.

    I noticed amzoil isn't dexos certified.
    Using non dexos certified oil will void your warranty if you have any.

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  7 років тому

      Not true, AMSOIL in your car will not void your GM warranty

    • @alex62654
      @alex62654 7 років тому

      LethalGarage if it's not dexos certified it will most definitely void your warranty.
      And judging by the bottle of amzoil in your video it doesn't have the dexos certification brand.
      Therefore it's not approved by GM so bye bye warranty, and if any engine issues were to arise in the future, the owner will pay out of pocket because using a non dexos certified oil voided the warranty.

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  7 років тому

      As long as you can prove your maintenance history , Gm can;t stop your warranty without proof the oil you used was the cause.

    • @alex62654
      @alex62654 7 років тому

      LethalGarage even if the oil wasn't the cause, once gm tests a sample of your oil and they find out it wasn't dexos certified.
      No more warranty.

    Lethal... Hoping to hear back on this. I have liked and been a subscriber but have yet to get a response on anything commented. This is in regards to oil filters. I see you replaced yours with a WIX 57060. I was sold a WL10290. i have been in different forums with this same question so others are concerned as well. News found says the PF64 AC Delco and WIX WL10290 have a 22psi bypass pressure vs the 57060 12 psi. I use the 57060 on my RAM 5.7 Hemi and that is what initially raised eyebrows when i saw your WIX part number because I was aware that is not what I was sold. Any news, updates or clarification would be appreciated if you have any answers. Thanks!

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  3 роки тому +1

      GM bumper up the PSI requirements to the suggested filter is the 10290 from WIX for the 16-21 SS and ZL1. .

    You prefer a Wix filter also? How often are you changing your oil?

    • @Lethalgarage
      @Lethalgarage  7 років тому +1

      I change my oil in 2500 mile intervals. I am using the Zrod 10w-30. Yes I support the Wix filter over the others and this is based on feedback I have gotten from a mechanic i trust and who has done his own testing and tearing apart of filters.

    • @ElectricBlueIX
      @ElectricBlueIX 7 років тому

      Ed C I've always heard that Wix filters are great but I currently have the OEM AC Delco filter. I'll be switching to Wix on my next oil change.

    Does anybody with a 2018 Camaro SS automatic have vibration issues that are not the transmission and not the wheels and tires? I've probably been to the dealership 20 times no joke 20 times since I've had the car I had the wheels balanced the transmission checked every time I take it up there something on the car gets damaged I've had my steering wheel replaced a rim and tire replaced. I'm so over it at this point I'm actually considering selling the car it's got six thousand miles on it. I'm going to say this one more time it's not the wheels and it's not the transmission I am aware of the shutter problems I don't have it. If anybody has any information please let me know.
