Hi Everyone,
I've been waiting for the past year to see how is the 5-30 oil working out for everybody who switched from the recommended 5-20?
My 1500 2013 hemi 60k miles is due for oil change, and I wanted to get an updated feedback about 5-30 oil in case anybody heard anyone having issues with it. Mds etc...
I've been using 5-20 oil forever in my truck, and all is working well. Quiet, no ties anymore - they went away around 30k.
Issue I'm having is that my engine seems to burn about 1 quart of oil every 3k miles, and oil dip stick seems to never stay on Full territory for more than a couple weeks. It's always at medium and I keep adding to full. Mechanic at local mods shop said that it's normal for hemi engines.
Would 5-30 oil help me with my oil burning issue? I'm of mindset to not change anything if it's not broken, but my hands are itchy at 5-30
