I will be going with either a full synthetic 15w-40 or full synthetic 5w-40 in the CRD, with the IMPORTANT words being FULL synthetic and NOT a synthetic blend.

ALSO, the parking brake problem turned out NOT to be the brake lever tension, but rather the fact that the...
Time for pads on all four corners and I have NEVER tried ceramic pads on any of my vehicles.
Rock Auto has the Akebono ProACT ceramics on wholesaler closeout for $30/axle and need to know if they are a good choice …even without changing the rotors
