Figured some might be interested to see this since 4R's are specced for 0W-20 in the US but heavier weights in other markets. Very pleased with the low iron (big timing chain) and silicon looks like its still coming down. Not too worried about the flashpoint since M1 0W-40 is on the thin side and Blackstone's flashpoint is inferred based on that. I'll run the next one out to 8-9K miles and see how it does.
OEM filters throughout, this SUV sees daily grind as well as some heavy load carrying, travel trailer towing, roadtrips and some time spent off road occasionally so we fit the factory "severe duty" description which recommends heavier than 20 weight and OCI's cut to 5K miles vs the normal 10k.
