Was the motor still functional?

If so let that be a testament to the durability of the M113 as well as a testament to the stupidity of the owner

$100 + 20 minutes and your oil is changed...

That or they didn't use synthetics That oil still looks wet whereas I'd expect the oil to be cooked or dryer looking... at least that's how conventional oils behave.

Thats pretty much what I've seen on the Ford's that came into the dealership that never changed the oil, a gunked up mess.

My brother had a shop and every single time I saw this scenario it was because they used conventional oil with synthetic intervals.

I sort of agree...but even with level of hotness...there is still a limit.


That CLS owner is an idiot, someone please save that car from them.

I've seen that so many times. I replaced a 5.7l hemi in a ram 3500 dually years ago and the guy said "didn't have time to change it". Well $7k later he wish he did. In my diesel I run synthetic with a centrifuge filter and go 25k-35k between oil changes and also send sample for lab analysis. Never had a problem.
