Hey Joseph,
	My correction I actually was using 10W-30 Amsoil 1 (flashing back to my neu-s4 dayz)  Last oil change was about 3000 miles ago.  Running Amsoil 20W-50 in the Summertime.

Thx Joe

Cody,
Some burn's normal, but that 0-30's too thin for my
blood.  I blew a valve cover gasket out when using it.
 Of course, that was in the summertime, but 10-30
amsoil's as thin as I go, 20-50 once it gets warm.
BTW, I get little to no consumption with the 10-30.

How many miles since your last change?

With a turbo over 100k, I don't like to go too thin,
but that's just me.
