Hi....I'm back.....and I still haven't changed my oil...(240Joe)

I just realized that my 6 month ban has now expired....so I'm out of jail.

Let talk all things related to oil changes or whatever.

Were you banned for not changing your oil frequently enough?

yes, pretty much. Da man doesn't like it when someone goes against what passes for "common knowledge".

Mr. POS,

You are very very confused. I've had 3 MB diesels, and put over 500k miles on them collectively.

I was banned for responding to the attack dogs who change their oil every 3kmiles, or every 5 minutes...whichever comes first.

Your attitude got you banned. No one really cares if you change your oil every 3000 miles or never; there's no conpiracy against you from "Da Man".

Be reasonable and polite and you can say pretty much whatever you wish.

So you are back. I sure hope you are not expecting a 21 gun salute and a full marching band to welcome you, or anything like that.

Given your reputation, and past discipline history, here and elewhere, so long as you are respectful, and don't flame people or cause trouble here, you should be fine, but be aware you are here after a pretty serious imbroglio and the moderators just did some housecleaning, and things are a bit touchy.

FWIW, these comments directed are directed to "GUAGE" also.

Each of you'd do well to bear them in mind.
