When in doubt, change it out.

+1, if youre ever unsure, just change it out. Might be a great learning experience for your daughter as well, oil changes/label reading.

It seems like nobody is sure what exactly is in there. Why not change it just to be safe? None of what you have said belongs in there.

That's my thinking, too. Formula Shell and a Supertech filter to the rescue, IMO. Short OCI and go back to what you usually do as was mentioned above. Also, congrats on raising a daughter who'll raise the hood on her car.

DRAIN IT AND REFILL! (With the correct oil and filter this time) Spank her hand and say NO!

Whilst I'm 100% sure no damage has been done, I'd get round to draining it out when its convenient.

Don't leave Drano in the garage.
