Need Help, trying to get dealer to fix my CTD

Hello,
I am having problems getting my local dealer to fix my truck. The truck does the following

1. Upon first start in the morning in surges in park and idles rough for 15-20 secs and then acts fine.

2. Has almost 0 power when first starting out in the morning,

3. The truck has become loud, it has the normal clatter clatter of a CR CTD, but it also rattles, and is quite a bit louder around 2K RPM.

4. The truck does not smoke or otherwise run rough.

5. There is not diesel in the oil

6. My oil was changed 5K miles ago and is now BLACK and has the consistency of TAR, it will not even flow down the dipstick.

What in the heck is wrong with this thing??? Does anyone know?? The tech thought it may be injectors, but according to him DC will not send parts to them. Has anyone else had these symptoms... PLEASE HELP
