I use Rotella T6 5w40 full synthetic, never had any issues many stores carry this type. Just my opinion.

I have been running Castrol or Mobil 1 Euro synthetic, 0-w40 for years with no issue. There is a new Quaker State synth that meess LL-01 designation too. I'm not sure the LL-01 is very important unless you plan to run 15k between changes. As mentioned above, whatever got it to 200k is probably a good choice. I do only use Mann or BMW filters. All the others are a hair too long and tend to crack and split in use.

The LL-01 spec changed but Mobil 1 Euro did not. It still meets the older LL-01 spec. Castrol Euro still lists LL-01. The new Quaker State synth shows LL-01, at least on the spec sheet. All should be available at WalMart for cheap.
