I have recently had an oil change. My previous oil was Selenia WR, which I think was a 5w/40 grade. That was put in my Multijet engine 6000 miles ago, came out quite clean. The italian garage that I go to, has changed the oil and filter this time, but filled it with Selenia Turbo Diesel 10w/40.
But in the last 200 miles that it has been in the engine noise is so much quieter than when it had Selenia WR in for the first 200 miles.
I know that its marginally thicker oil and will suspend deposits better, besides that, I do not know, any idea's from the rest of you.
Just as a note, I change the oil every 6000 to 8000 miles, generally before the oil turns to a dark brown, I like a clean engine internally.
