OP: No offense, but judging from your signature ("2002 Escort 0W40 Mobil 1 Euro") you seem to be stuck in the warm fuzzies in regards to your oil choices. M1 Euro formulation in a Ford Escort? Its a naturally aspirated Ford.. not a turbo charged Audi.
You asked for advice. People gave it to you then you went with an HDEO? What are you trying to gain by this?
I can understand wanting a quality synthetic so if that's what you want, M1 or PP 5w20 will work. If you still want to overdue it, M1 EP or Pennzoil Ultra will work too. Get a quality filter, make sure your air filter is clean/ good and just drive. My .02
