I run Motul 10/30 in my motor, helps the piston slap on cold start from the forged pistons.
I'm using motul 5w40 8100 x clean and it's great on my m54b22. I'm loosing little to no oil between changes
Looks fine to me, oil is relatively cheap, forget all the mileage crap and change it sooner if you are uncomfortable with the way it looks. I change my oil every 2000 miles, or whenever I go on or do heavy riding. I also switched over to Motul 7100 simply because it’s red and I can see exactly when it starts to discolor. A motorcycle mechanic told me the number one reason for engine failure is dirty oil so I started changing it frequently.
My 276k mile Xterra still trucks along with motul, every 3k miles.
changing the engine oil and using motuls 10w40 fixed it and getting mileage around 40.
I replaced the company oil to motul 10w40 engine oil, the changes weren't drastic but the milage and smoothness improved over the time
I've recently started using Motul 7100 10w40. Actually I'm due for my first change and should get under it today. It's the only pull I've ever used that actually made a noticable difference in operation. The esters bond and quiet the motor to a noticable audible level. It's designed for motorcycles though and with the unique properties of this ester based oil, I'm taking a chance with carbon build up, but the protection at higher rpms it provides gives me confidence under those conditions, which is where carbon is best loosened at too. Supposedly this burns fairly clean for a synthetic, but IDK. I'm changing at 3k miles to see how it looks. May or may not extend it out, but has felt great so far in this 135k mile motor.
I'm using mannol extreme 5 W 40, very good price quality.
Using Mannol for my diesel.
I blew up my first motor at the track on Motul.
