No. Use the right oil weight, and keep your receipts.

Nope. Just keep a record of the date you did it and your receipts for buying it and your good. I write the date of each oil chance in my owner's manual. As for receipts, since I buy the oil here, no need for receipts.

Only if they can prove that your oil change somehow caused the engine to blow up. As long as you keep records, etc, you should be fine.

Be sure to use 5-20, and at least a semi-synthetic. You'll Be all good. 5.0 is 8 qts and both the V8 and V6 the filter is a FL-500
