I know how much synthetic is going into my semi syn mix
I have it on my shelf for about 4 years now
I can't seem to find 10w30 conventional in 20l containers; so I'm mixing to lower the viscosity of my 15w40 slightly.

Engine idling smoother and quieter. Wifey notice the same thing as well. Will see how it works in the long run.

To be honest, i did not ask... the mechanic/service technician i took the vehicle by mentioned that he switched to the Bizol as he got a hook up with a supplier who was offering a price which was better than the oil he previously used.

1KD - Toyota Fortuner.
Additionally, did a diesel flush to clean the injectors so this too must have contributed to the smoother and quieter idling. I must say, that the combination of those two (i.e. different oil and injector cleaning) must have really helped the engine cause even when the van is coasting, it is practically silent.
@ Kronik - Yes to your question... Thanks for the link. Seems very knowledgeable. Hoping to use this link moving forward.
