Try synthetic. If you notice you have some leaks at the seals, switch back to the conventional oil.

Check what the manufacturer recommends and make sure the oil you use meets those standards and you'll be OK. In general Chevron Delo and Shell Rotella are excellent diesel oils.

Use synthetic, more expensive, better protection.....
