Somewhere I read that these cars (engine) has a sensor that determines when the oil should be changed and when IT determines it is time the dashboard will read " time to change the oil" or something like that.
Well, today it said it's "time to change the oil" So I checked my records and the Dealer did the first oil change at 5500
today I have 7761 miles.
So, this tells me that Chrysler used a better oil in the Engine from the factory and probably a synthetic oil and the Dealer has used some recycled cheap crap oil the 2nd. time.
By the way the dash light did not come on and tell me the first time, so I could have gone longer than 5500 miles.
I use Mobil 1 synthetic oil in my other engines and that oil lasts over 7,500 miles. What do use guy's use and what weight is recommended?
Thanks for your thoughts,
Jack
