I don't know about Roofy's engine, our 3.0TD Hiace vans did 10000klm before their 1st oil change and 1st service.
Toyota would of put good oil in from the get go without a doubt or they couldn't offer the amazing warranty's on new cars.
Good oil is cheap compared to another engine swap, it's false economy to use some cheap stuff.
