[QUOTE="OhMyJosh, post: 1942865, member: 64560"] Before embarking on our road trip from VA through the south, then southwest, and through the mountains of Colorado towing our trailer, I had the geniuses at NTB install new tires and do an oil change. About 2500 miles and many mountain passes later towing a 4000lb rig, I started to smell oil coming up the pass to Ouray, CO. I checked under the hood, and the filler cap was neatly placed by the rad hose, and oil was sprayed all over the passenger side of the engine. Dipstick shows it’s still in the right range but I can’t help but think the dust in Moab, Arizona, and Colorado could compromise the 6.2. I’m dealing with NTB now to get restitution but what would y’all recommend? Take it to the ford dealer ASAP to have a full inspection, flush, and change? The oil looks fine and again - didn’t lose enough to register but I hate the feeling of an open hole towing my rig for almost 3k miles. [/QUOTE]
