I just picked up an 02 cheby 2500 LWB CC Duramax pickemup. Don't know swuat about diesels. Any brand of oil filter, fuel filter, air filters preferred by you experts? I do know to use RottellaT 15w40 oil.

As you know stay away from Fram and Pennzoil oil filters.
Cut them open and compare to say a Wix, Valvoline which is made by Champion Labs, Puralator, etc. and you will see the difference , 15-40 delo is a great oil to use along with I'm sure rotella, I use 5-40 Valvoline extreme blue synthetic in my rig, I would install
the K&N Fipk unit and if you want t to boost performance, the edge juice with attitude monitor, the performance from these are amazing.

Mitch use the Baldwin 1441 and get the Juice all you really need. Use only GM fuel filters and keep the receipts. The Amsoil filter works well also.

Dan-
You have to have a good reason to tell me to use only GM fuel filters! Why?
Mitch
 
so you can take the GM fuel filter reciepts to GM when the injectors fail on you from trash getting to them;)

how many miles are on it?

Exactly what Brian said. There was a message sent out saying to change every 15k and only Gm filter and must have a reciepts so warrenty will cover. I have 25 k on my 03 and no problems. I run a fuel conditioner also every other tank. Supposed to help.
