5w30 recommendation based on suggestions in this thread.
I’m at 47,*** miles so I have less then 3000 miles to get the manifolds fixed before the truck know out of warranty. If that is even the problem. I foresee “it’s normal” in my future.
My lease is up in November and I’ll be at almost 60k miles by then. I’d be paying over $3000 in mileage fees. That and I had originally planned on keeping the truck so I did a 2” lift, exhaust, tires, wheels, and other removable accessories.
I can easily get a cheap set of oem wheel and tires on Craigslist and remove my other accessories to trade it in but I’m not removing the lift and I’d still have to pay the fines. Plus I’ve been told my truck is only worth $20k even though my buy out is $24k so that’s $4000 in negative equity as well. So I’m stuck keeping the truck and buying an extended warranty.
