Not owning a new car I don't think of a warranty. Sorry OP!
Stick with the OEM, he's right!

I have always used OEM in my cars so that dealer don't give stories since it's under warranty. Now, if your car it out of warranty period, feel free use w/e.

Out of curiosity, I would like to remove and look inside your oil pan. Some times you'll find,"what is this", or "what was that"!
