Jethro.....?  Yes, granny!  Mobil 1 rebadged the SUV/truck synthetic oil 
to Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 and now sells it in 4 qt. jugs 
instead of the 5qt. jugs at Wal-Mart & GI Joe's.  Need to stay away from 
the Costco stuff because it's not rated for turbos or VW 505.02.  YMMV. 
The M1 TDT has all the expensive chemicals in it.  Rotella is great 
stuff for the money for non-turbo cars (info came from Eliot Lim whom 
runs the stuff in his 993 Targa & swears it runs and sounds better).
