TTGTR,
I switched over to 5w-40 M1 and haven't seen any indications of the smoke at the stop lights or drive-thru's as I did with the 5w30. I only have about 500miles on the new blood tho.
I started noticing the smoke much more often as I put more miles on the 5w30.. could be psychological tho ?? ( those damn voices again )
