From my UOA via Blackstone Labs - Mobil 1 5w30 with 8000+ miles before the change. Oil did well. No way Im changing at 5000mi.

Oil has come a long way! This car gets good use, high speed and rev's stop and go traffic, and we have seen some higher oil and air temps as well. Bravo Mobil-1!! Car has 14000miles now. Its a daily driver as well.

--Dave: Aluminum, iron, copper, and silicon all read a little high in this engine's first sample, but these are
common to see in young engines. Your engine is from 2010, but it's still quite low mileage, so we're
guessing the highlighted elements (plus aluminum) are due to residual wear-in and not a problem. Silicon,
then, would be from factory sealers and sand-casted parts. Averages are based on 4,800 miles for this
engine, though you shouldn't have any problems with longer oil runs. The TBN is fine at 2.9. Try 9,000 miles--

Mr Force Im sold on it after this. I was also considering Pennzoil Platinum. I have some engineer friends/contacts at Porsche here and they all use Mobil1 as does the factory and its racing efforts. Its more than good enough! I will do 1 more UOA next time and then give it a rest. I had never used such a service. Very pleased.!

If its good enough for you (and Porsche, and Nissan GTR) then its good enough for me

The service does sound cool. Thanks again for sharing the information.

Limpy! Hmmm-there's a joke there somewhere, more like a smartazz remark.

Awesome! Were you nervous?!
