    Tip for y’all who own this truck and take it to the dealer for oil changes, use a paint pen to make a mark on the filter to know if it actually got replaced , some techs won’t change it due to filter placement and will simply drain and fill the engine.

    oil filter and oil pan drain plug placement is what happens when using a 4th Gen engine in a new 5th Gen truck!! It's unfortunate the RAM engineers (or bean counters) did not modify the pan or oil filter placement. Nice video!

    Spent some time researching RAM 1500 DT oil change this morning then spent two hours changing my oil (first time on my new truck) and now I open UA-cam and see my favorite RAM blogger just posted a video on how do it - LOL. Echo frustration re engineering especially with the filter placement... Managed to control all mess around sway bar by covering it with a plastic bag and putting carton on garage floor, but even with my OCD I failed to do a neat job avoiding mess getting old filter out (ziplock bag method helped a bit, but not fully).

    There was a mechanic friend once tell me not to prefill your filters because you could enter dirt into the oil (crap on the bottle or your gloves) that will pump dirt straight into your bearings. It's better to let the filter do it's job and filter all your oil. Remember you just shut it off so the engine is wet with oil so no harm with a dry filter when you start it.

    • @TonyTheTruckGuy
      @TonyTheTruckGuy  2 роки тому

      He is right, however, I’m not working in a sand pit and I was pouring oil from the top of a brand new bottle with clean gloves, so I’m not concerned. In harsher or dirtier environments, I would agree. I just don’t like my engines running without oil for even a split second, especially these pesky hemi lifters that are prone to failure. Not sure how much oil drains back over the course of the hour or so it takes me to do this. It is also preferred to fill the filter through the outer holes with a plug in the center if possible, that way the oil you pour into the filter is also getting filtered.

    • @TonyTheTruckGuy
      @TonyTheTruckGuy  3 роки тому +2

      I highly recommend it, especially with the very small oil ports in the lifters that are prone to failure on the Hemi. Synthetic tends to flow better. Here’s a quote directly from Mopar - “We recommend you use API Certified SAE 5W-20 Engine Oil, meeting the requirements of Chrysler Material Standard MS-6395 such as MOPAR®, Pennzoil®, and Shell Helix®”. It doesn’t say synthetic, but all 3 companies they list primarily make synthetic.

    Do you use ramps when you change your oil? If not, has it ever given you any problems for not using ramps?

      I did not use ramps, but I’m also not super big, and it’s also have a leveling kit with oversized tires. If it was stock, ramps would probably help.

      Well you see, leaves find their way into the engine compartment when you have to park under a tree. And pressure washing the engine bay isn’t exactly good for your electronics.

    The dealership doesn’t pull the plug, they vacuum out the oil from the dip stick tube. I had 2 oil changes done and there was not oil stains on the sway bar or any where. And the drain plug looks untouched. I hate sitting at the dealership for 2-3 hours waiting!!

    No room for that damn oil filter...I hate doing my oil changes now lol. Isn't there a possibility of oil leaks or more oil consumption when using a thinner W oil weight than what the Manufacturer recommends..???

    • @TonyTheTruckGuy
      @TonyTheTruckGuy  3 роки тому +2

      Like I was trying to explain a bit in the video, a 0w-20 isn’t necessarily “thinner” than a 5w-20, because both are a “20 weight oil” when they are warm. The first number (0, or 5 in this case) is just a winter rating how well the oil flows in the cold (32° and below). So they just have different properties, but aren’t necessarily “thinner”. Technically, a 0w-20, a 5w-20, a 10w-20, and a straight SAE 20 are all the same thickness when warm.
