    Now days being brand new doesn't mean it's not the problem. Sadly that's the way new parts are now.

    I’m working for a small company. 60 Trucks. Almost half of them are Coronado Gliders. 12.7’s. Oil changed every 10k. Have yet to see any blow by. Not even on a few with 700k+ miles. I’m sold on 10k oil changes for 12.7’s.
