"Rosemella" I've called it for years, Rotella just plain stinks IMO.
Besides the stuff sinking, I didn't get good results on my oil analysis years ago with the stuff and always had to add oil between changes. When I got rid of the Rotella , it fixed the whole thing.
Really bad chemical/exhaust smell in cab after Oil change at Petro. Anybody had this problem?

I the old truck I changed to Amsoil but there is limited selection from them for newer emission trucks... -

Update...
The smell disappeared after few hundred miles. So apparently , if you get bad exhaust smell inside your truck right after an oil change, no need to panic , it will eventually go away. If you can locate the source of smell and clean it, even better. If not, be patient... -
I run Mobil delvac 1 le 5w30 which is a full synthetic oil and every single time I do a oil change, I get this burning fiberglass smell for the first while.
