What about Rotella T6? The gen3 TDI guys are all about Rotella T6. I was
thinking about it for the ASV since that wants 3 gallons of oil and I can get
T6 in 5 gallon pails for way cheaper than M1.
Actually I ought to ask the local Deere dealership what they want for a bucket
of their synthetic. I think they call for either a 10w30 or 0w40 synthetic...

M1 15W-50 is still best for summer and moderate winter temps. (OM
601,2,3) and still good for OM61x, although the soot levels dictate more
frequent oil changes, so, IMHO make OM61x not worth the price of
synthetic. I'd guess about 0º. Below 0, you probably need a garage, a
block heater, lighter oil or all the above. Delo or Delvac are good for
OM61x. Avoid rotella.
