I built a really VERY nice turbodiesel for my classic 1981 VW Rabbit Pickup. I broke it in nice and slow with 15-40 Rotella and all was well, though the oil temperature was a tad high.
I just switched it over to Mobil 1 TDT and I can't believe the difference. The oil temperature stays 20 degrees below the lowest previous operating temperature and the engine is quieter and more responsive.
Synthetic is definitely the way to go.
Oh, here's my truck
