I did NOT just use the FAQ for reference source for my info. I did do plenty of searching and that's how I found out that TDI engineers changed their minds later on about using dino oil in a ALH.I took all the info into account and made my judgment on using 15W-40.No informed person would still use conventional oil or rely on the FAQ to justify using conventional oil, or recommend conventional oil to others using the FAQ as a reference source.
Would I use it all the time? Absoutely NOT!!! Is your engine going to blow up, melt down, or fall out of your car using it once with ARX? Probably not.
Beside, I wonder how many ALH failures there have been using rotella 15W-40 in warm weather with 3,000-5,000mi OCI? Probably none. They usually get killed by idiots who screw up the TB or with idiots that insist on using fryer greese in their TDI.
