Been scanning the form for a bit but no posts... So here's my first and not a good one.
So I bought a used 2005 F250 with 29,000 miles on it. Everything is great on it and in perfect condition from what I can see. I got it from a Toyota dealer that an elderly couple owned and traded it in since they didn't need that big of a truck anymore.
Well the dealer said they changed the oil which is fine but even at that every car I get I always change all the filters and fluids so I know what and when it was done.
So I drain the oil and then go to change the filter... broke the top of the new one off getting it in so I went down to by a new one.. Turned out great.
Filled it up with oil started it a few min then shut it down and topped it off....
All good right.... Nope I was looking at the filters and notice they were different the old one was longer and I decided to look a bit closer at it all and seen the cap says Wix.... So now I'm screwed and cant use my truck because the filter is wrong...... kindof pizzzz me off.
Gonna call the dealer tomorrow and let them know they need to get me a factory oil filter cap, Factory filter and 4 gal of Delo oil...
Sorry about the long rant and such. just a bit irritated.
