Hey everybody, new to the forum here and have not had a Diesel truck since my 2006 Duramax (Pre-DEF) and been living the gas life for a while.
Now that I am back to rollin coal and enjoying my new cummins, wanted to see if there was a TL;DR on maintenance. I know there are different views just like with everything else, but is there a sticky on maintenance or vendors that support the board to buy stuff from?
With my Duramax I had to change out a number of things and stay on top of it (trans spin on filter, fuel filter, oil changes etc etc).
What are some of the things I should watch out for or stay on top of with the cummins?
Trans Spin on filter?
DEF Fluid - (heard of expired DEF Fluid??) any specific brand / location to purchase?
Oil type / filter? (Shell T6 - Which is super hard to find here in FL for some reason and sells out quick!)
Air Filter type?
Thanks for any insight!
