As I mentioned in a previous post, I sent in my oil a little more than a week ago for an analysis to Oil Analyzers and received the report this morning. They have requested the product name, which I have sent to them. If someone can help me interpret this report, it would be great. A few things I want to add first:
The oil has 7000 miles on it, not 5000 as stated on the report (I have sent in the corrected miles)
I drove the car less than 10 minutes to my mechanic in cold weather when I took it for the oil change, so fuel dilution might be slightly high due to not fully warming up
Before he changed the oil he may have only idled it briefly to warm it up
There was a lot of hard driving over the 7000 miles in both extremely hot and cold conditions with at least two 800 mile trips at high speeds in harsh conditions
The oil in this sample is Idemitsu 0W20 Fully Synthetic Motor Oil
Any help in interpreting this report is appreciated
