first oil change

[Keithbickford]

did my first oil change 700 miles ,its been 6 months , ine had that normal hemi noises at idle , after the oil change totally quiet ,anyone else notice this after the first oil change?

Actually, they may have used the wrong oil this time. I asked my dealership if they use the Pennzoil ultra platinum 0W 40 oil. They said they don’t know. “We just put what comes out of the hose.” I asked this question to the technician, the service manager, and the parts manager. None of them could answer me. So perhaps you got a thicker oil, which could actually be harmful. I don’t know.

Such a terrible response. Talk about someone who gives zero sh*ts about their job if they're not willing to understand what it is they're actually working with.
Ok, I gotta stop here, I'll work myself up over it.

Always, Always, stay away from the dealership as much as you can. Absolute minimum.
I tried to take my Demon into the local dealership to install the race ECU, they said it would take 2 weeks and cost bunches of money. Obviously I didn't let the touch my car.

You mean their response, not mine. Had me for a moment. Indeed. I’ve never gone back. I change my own oil and have done one used oil analysis. All is good.

so after sitting overnight ,no tic on startup ,or idle at all .oil filter has a slight drip ,retighten with filter wrench.its hard to tighten by hand as its so big ,unless u have, seinfeld man hands

My oil filter adapter started leaking after my first oil change. Dealer warrantied and replaced.
I think the main shaft holding the adapter together was loose and allowed the unit to separate once the original filter was removed.
Something to keep an eye on.
