    Hey Fellows,

    I got a reefer Thermo king c-600 and it has been about 6 months since I got it. I was wondering after how long do you need to do and oil change on them? Approx how much do oil change cost on them?
    Also I wanted to add extra light to the trailer and want to do it myself I was wondering if anyone could help out on this

    I have a 2017 wabash reefer with a thermoming reefer unit c-600

    Thanks look forward to your answersp

    I would of done a pm on it before I even put the first load into it, I have an older 200 but I still prefer to do mine every 1500 hours, oil and filters are cheap, replacements and break downs are not

    I have a C600 as well. I have it serviced every 6 months or 1000 hours, which ever comes first.
