I flip-flop between M1 0W40 and M1 5W40 turbodiesel depending on my mood and what I can find.

Default 3rd! Just did it on this oil change, ELF/Total... so far so good. Great oil
my girlfriends uncle who is an ex mechanic said he's never seen such clean looking oil before. whatever that means

Default same, since day 1. Blackstone report says go for 8,500 miles next time
so, no complaints and no reason to change.
