Hi JEB,
Which syn? If not Mobil 1 (or other higher end syns) I would change to M1 ... then, drive the living bejeezus out of it for a week ... extended ops at 80 MPH (or, leave in lower gear at lower speeds for same RPM) ... then, take a look and see what has happened.
With that mileage, can't imagine anything serious that would not be obvious in the operation.
