Too funny to delete. Unless you both want me to clean it up.

I ended up buying the cheaper Monroes. I guess I'll find out soon enough. They are on the way. Gotta be better than what is on the car now. I am getting a rattle in the left rear every time I hit a little bump.

Nice Marty. I didn't realize they made different grades.

I know this isn't diesel related, but... I need some new struts. Should I go with Monroe or Gabriel? Gabriel is almost double the cost. Just looking to see if anyone has any info on these. Thank you in advance.

I think the oil is EURO. I've seen it a few times. Said it was for VWs.

Yes. I think my post was a bit to vague. The Mobil 5W-40 TD oil that I bought was fully synthetic. Not sure if anyone even makes a dino 5W-40. But now there is 15W-40 TD full synthetic oil. I'm running that now.

This looks like a good Ad On.

LOL. No worries sir!

I have the Chevrolet 2500 HD crew cab. Nothing on the bed. I upped tires and adjusted for size on my tuner. I was shocked that I had better fuel mileage at 75-80 mph than I did at 65-70. I did use a sheel of plywood to make a Portuguese bed cover for the airflow and to cover my stuff in the bed...

I used to hand calculate my fuel mileage on my LLY Duramax. I averaged around 24mpg on all highway runs and 18-19 for all other driving. I would have thought the 3.0 liter 6 would have done better. My last hand calculated fuel mileage run was done last year. From RI to central PA. Doing around...

Yes. I agree BigR.

Nice Marty. Did you sell it?

Yes, I agree BigR. We both know you could give the media a typed article and they would still get it wrong. Lol My 2006 was an LLY. Just a detuned LBZ, but has all the LBZ goodies inside. Just basically a tuning difference.

Thank you sir. And of course I find a mistake in the first paragraph. Lol. V8 Duramax's first came with a 5 speed Allison. 6 speed came in 2006. Lol

Cool. Thanks Jeff. How is fuel economy?

Thank you.

Just curious if anyone has any long term feedback. For reliability and durability.

@BoostN Any long term update on how this motor is doing?

Ok. Tread lightly. 👍
