Have a 2015 RT/RT and have racked up the miles fairly quickly...like 11k since September quickly.
My question is this: I replaced my oil with RP at 4k and the little sticker says come back in April or at 11K (yeah they want me back soon for more $$$) but at 4K my oil life indicator went to 35% life. After the synthetic and now 7K later I have 53% life.
Does the oil life indicator look at RPM/viscosity/load/time and such and make a calculation (which I think is beyond cool) or does it come up with the number a different way?
I figured it was some sort of timer but since the oil life % is so much different this time around , I ask, does it really know?
Thanks for your time!
