The engine in a Duramax was built in Moraine, Ohio, at a manufacturing facility that makes around 200,000 Duramax engines a year. The company that makes Duramax engines is a partnership between General Motors and Isuzu, so they make proprietary diesel engines for GMC, Chevy, and Isuzu.

If you’re driving an older GMC or Chevrolet truck, you can look at your truck’s VIN to determine if it has a Duramax engine:
General Motors recommends SAE 15W-40 engine oil for all Duramax diesel engines. For TX drivers who have to consider sub-zero temperatures at times, GM recommends 5W-40 motor oil. Other oil weights can congeal at low temperatures. Then it can stick to the engine’s pistons and cause significant damage. During summer months in Waxahachie, a fully synthetic 15W-40 motor oil is a good fit.
