I’ve used M1 full synthetic with great luck. That being said, I’ve been using Super Tech synthetic high mileage stuff and it’s been just fine. Just get a decent quality filter.

So, you have the non-particulate filter and you need an oil that meets the API SN/CF, ACEA A3/B3, A3/B4 requirements. Some oils that you can use include Shell Helix Ultra 5W40, Castrol Magnetic 10W40 or Castrol Magnetic Diesel 15W40, Febi Bistein Full-synthetic 5W40, Valvoline All-climate 5W40 Full-synthetic and Mobil One 5W40.
