    I switched to synthetic but not at the first oil change. My dealer did the first oil change at the 3K inspection (presumably with BRP blend). I conducted the second oil change at 8.3K with Mobil Delvac 5/40 synthetic diesel oil https://www.mobil.com/en-us/commerci...-delvac-1-5w40 as it met the SL, SJ & SN standards. I will change again at 11.5K with a 5/40 full synthetic and again at 15K to get on an easy 5K interval. The 5k interval just makes the math easier. For the record I am also using synthetic gear oil (of the proper viscosity) in the gear box and final drive

    I'll reply to this rekindled thread. Change to a full synthetic at your first oil change. It's more than ready for full syn at that point.
