My bro's 2002 M112 engine uses about .5 to .75qt per 5,000 miles of Mobil 1 0w40. He drives it like he stole it, so that might contribute a bit to the consumption. Engine has 141k on it right now. Are 9-10k changes ok on these if using fleece filters? His oil still looked pretty clean with 5k on it...
