several times i've searched the T1N threads for opinions on this and what i end up with each time is a discussion of what oil to use, not how often to change it, so i am turning to you my roadtrek peers for some help with this.
the manual clearly says change every 10,000 miles. my garage (25 years in service, owner in my friendship community, awards up the wazoo for the best service in SF, years of working on mercedes diesel passenger cars and now doing a couple of small fleets of sprinters and a handful of roadtreks) stubbornly insists that 5k is the right interval for diesel oil changes. says the proper interval is even more crucial in diesels than gas engines.
what say you? what do you?
thanks for any help with this ought-to-be obvious question.
