Well Jooseppi doesn't live in socal, but he lives in Maine. Plenty cold in the winter. I have been so happy with Mobil 1 (5/40) since I started using it 5 or 6 years ago. I think it is labeled for Diesel Light truck or SUV. I probably put on 7,000 per year, run it 50 miles a day for 150 days a year and change it once a year. I drive it hard when the engine warms up. It uses no oil, leaks no oil and so I add no oil, by the time I change it in October, it is pretty much down to the add oil mark. I check the oil level at least once a month.
