Oil Drain Intervals for DD Platform Heavy Duty On-Highway Engines
The oil drain intervals for DD13/15/16 Heavy Duty On-Highway engines listed in the table below are based on engines operating with Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel (below 15 ppm) meeting the properties listed in “Diesel Fuel Properties” table with a Detroit Fluids Specification DFS 93K223, DFS 93K222 or DFS 93K218 approved oil. API FA-4, CK-4 or CJ-4 certified oil that is not Detroit Fluids Specification approved may be used at reduced drain intervals. These intervals should be considered as maximum and should not be exceeded.
