I have a 2000 Viggen, got it last year with ~130K miles on it. It came with the kit#6 installed, but I don't know when that was done. As a precaution I dropped the oil pan looking for sludge. I found the pan to be sludge free, very clean. The top end (camshafts etc) was very clean as well.
BUT, the oil pickup tube was about 75% clogged with the "coffee beans". I cleaned that thoroughly and reinstalled the oil pan. Car runs great. I'm staying with full synthetic, changing oil every 3000 as a pre-caution. My 9000's have routinely made it above 250K, we'll see about the Viggen.
