Good day everyone,
I 'm thinking about changing up which motor oil I use and would like to get some info if I could. I bought my 2010 Ram 1500 5.7 4x4 about 5 years ago with 115,000km on it. It is now at 194,000km. I have always used Castrol full synthetic 5w20, except the last couple times I used Kirkland full synthetic 5w20 only because of the price. I'm wondering if it is a good idea to switch over to something like Pennzoil platinum full synthetic high mileage, or Quaker state high mileage full synthetic. Or should I stay with what I am using? I change my oil every 5,000km (I know, I'm probably changing it too often) I'm actually doing a test run right now of going for 8,000 km but I think I am loosing a little it of oil between changes so I will most likely stick with 5k intervals.
Thanks!
