So with the fuel filter you just unscrew it like the oil filter and put a new one one? Will diesel fuel spill out while its unscrewed? Do you need to lubricate the filter gasket some how? Also what type of oil do these things take? The dealer said they did an oil change on it, and I can see the new fram oil filter but the oil itself looks dirty, compared to conventional say 5w30 or 10w30 then I thought that maybe it uses some sort of other oil that is just darker to start with. Also how do you then reset the change oil and change fuel filter message. Thanks again. So far I am loving my first diesel truck, it is a big step up from my 2000 gmc sierra 2wd with 4.8 v-8 that I had before. The power and torque you feel from this truck is insane. I will post a picture of my new truck in the next day or so. Also does anybody know the average life expectancy of a duramax motor?
