This one's on an S4 with nearly 90K miles on it...
2.7 liters
Two turbos
6.9 quart sump
8000 miles
Amsoil 0W30

John spends a lot of time racking up highway miles. In any event...<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1218585.phtml">clickity click!...</a></li></ul>

I'm still pissed that my 5K results didn't look anywhere as good as yours.!!!!

How soon to your next change? Maybe it'll look better?

Default nothing soon...

I did not do analysis of my last oil which I drained about a month ago, because it was an old batch of M1 0w-30 TriSynth. Since I won't be using this oil ever again (seeing as it's discontinued), I did not bother to have it analyzed.

I'm running M1 0w-40 SS (just like you) right now, but I only have about 1K miles on it so far. Also, I will probably wait until my second batch of this oil before getting it analyzed just to make sure the leftover 0w-30 TriSynth doesn't "pollute" the sample and the analysis.
