iweb Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I let a dealer do my oil changes, $52 and I don't have to mess with the used oil like I have for years. I wouildn't use a Fram filter in my worst enemys rig, they are junk. Go here and join, they have tons of good info on Dodge Cummins and have the best prices on chips: http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/index.php I buy 7 micron fuel filters here: http://www.genosgarage.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offroadracer Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Terrible Herbst Lube has ya covered!! ...not to sh*t talk on anyone but the last time they did the service on my chevy they left the filter loose,the trans dipstick laying on the air box, and then the a$$hat that drove smeared oil on the steering wheel...soooooo as far as terribles they need to get some people a little more qualified!!!Id be paranoid to take my diesel there!! How hard is it to do a quick service its not hard i just didnt have time and relied on thinking i could take it somewhere to have done...but any ways Im over it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegashd Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 My last oil change I used AFEs new oil and fuel filter they just released. Cheaper then the fleetguard and filters better. Not to mention They are easier to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
