Oil
« on: September 11, 2006, 03:25:58 pm »
My wife took our car to the garage to have the oil changed and apprearantly they put regular oil in.  Should I call and tell them what idiots they are or just have diesel synthetic put real soon.

BTW, we just came back from a 700 mile trip.

Without the proper detergents the oil can sludge up very quickly and clog the oil pickup. I'd change the oil asap.

I found out that they put 15-45 Diesel Oil - but not the sythetic 15-45 Diesel Oil I prefer.
