Post your latest oil change

[OldCracker29]

With all the DFM lifter issues, I'm hoping keeping fresh quality oil in will keep me safe from one going bad. You don' have that issue.

I read some where that by using a thicker oil it was taking care of that problem.

No, thicker isn't better. It's an old myth that keeps going around. GM went with a thicker oil on the recalled 6.2's because of out of tolerance rod end's. The lifter issue is also part bad quality used lifters and those that don't change their oil like they should.
