I have one of those remaining oil life monitoring systems on my 08 Duramax. I changed my oil on 1-29-16 and noted a few weeks ago that I had about 45% oil life left. I thought that to be about right. Then yesterday it popped up a warning change engine oil soon! I checked and it said no oil life left. I have never had it do that before. I change it most of the time when it gets around 30%. I thought that was awfully fast for it to go to 0%. Almost no highway driving on this change or towing. I had gone about 2,900 miles. I usually get around 6,000 miles between changes going by what the sensor tells me. I changed it of course to be on the safe side. Didn’t know if anyone else has had the same experience. Part two. Every time I change the oil it bothers me that the front of the pan is a good 1 1/2 lower than the back of the pan where the plug is. No way to get all the old oil out. I would guess maybe a 1/2 qt of the old oil stays in. Seems like a bad design. I will try and attach a photo of the pan. It’s not mine but one I found on the net.

In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and
