62.62 for 8 quarts supercar 0w-40 and pf63 filter is what i found plus tax and shipping. 
34.32 for 8 quarts mobil one 0w-20 and pf63 or ac.delco is 50.94 for oil and filter so i understand why price at dealerships have increased but my dealer that just did recall (passed) said oil change through them would now be $200. I never have had a dealer change the oils and this increase seems ridiculous as they can get better pricing for bulk. 
i now have 2 cars and 1 truck that require the supercar oil imagine if the dealer did the servicing on these 3?

One last question and I will let this thread die. Had my recall completed, passed testing, oil & filter change, and new oil cap. Just missing the owners manual insert. My dealer knows nothing about the insert, just gave me a print out showing the recall was completed. 
Does anyone know if that insert is anywhere on the web so I can print a copy?  Or does anyone have a copy that they are willing to scan and post?

Any assistance appreciated.

Now that I read a bit deeper it does not matter about the insert as all the manual says is to check the oil cap for what oil to use. 
Sorry for dredging this post back up.

I currently have a connecting rod sticking out of the engine compartment on my 2021 Silverado 1500 6.2 liter.  After some research and finding out that there was a recall I made some phone calls.  Just for them to tell me that my truck was not part of the recall for the 2021-2024 Silverado 6.2-liter trucks that have a recall due to crankshaft and connecting rod issues.   Any help would be much appreciated.  FYI the truck has 60k miles on it.

Were you told why yours was not a part of the recall?  You may want to call GM customer service. 
 

Here is a link to the recall info:

Good luck.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
