11-02-2011, 04:40 PM #4Last time I used some high mileage pennzoil 10w40 in my 617, it seems to work pretty well. I usually add some seafoam a day or two before changing and it seems to run a little better each time.

11-04-2011, 12:25 AM #11Mobil 1 5W40 Turbo Diesel Truck Synthetic has been run for 10k miles on a 603 and came back with good oil analysis results. Around 8-10k I began planning my oil change. I've been running this oil on my 603 since 160,000 and I'm around 195,000 now.
