We see these results often in hybrid short trippers. That does includes these wear numbers by the way.
I save the drama for several successive UOAs, again with a slightly thicker oils and a slightly longer OCI.
This is a Hyundai engine after all, and my goal would be to seek maximum fuel...
Small GDI engine.
LOL BITOG.
The viscosity dropped slightly below threshold.
12 PPM Fe.
Corresponding Al.
But wait...Blackstone guessed on the fuel dilution with that...gasp...flashpoint.
This poster will--not--panic.
Thank you OP for this very interesting UOA.
as I almost bought one of those...
Wow. 1995. It ALL began for me a decade before that when Red Line Oil was across the strait in Martinez, CA.
Red Line High Performance 20W50. Man that stuff was thick. :LOL:
It was a pleasure to have met you RL Dave.
I am not sure.
But of course deaf-mutes are going to have sensory skills beyond normal.
They did seem to agree with each other.
LOL.
What a perfect storm of circumstances.
The lease agreement was no longer the prevailing issue.
A young deaf-mute couple was renting a room upstairs.
One day, they frantically signed that there are ghosts residing in the house.
The young deaf-mute couple moved out the next day.
I rest my case.
And yet I sleep well at night.
I see you finally threw in a few up to date qualifiers, such as some engines being designed to manage heat better on such abhorrently thin oil.
This poster is looking forward to more and more lectures as constant skepticism is important.
That amount of sludge has me suspicious about what maintenance really occurred.
Also, short tripper, severe service conditions with TGMO 0W16 would call for 5k mile OCIs.

For me, Chevron, once a month. [Use Top Tier Fuel]
I use very thin oil, specially designed for cold starts. [Lower viscosity oils improve start up wear]
30k mile OCI with data, and critical thinking re my individual circumstances ie gradually extended OCIs + UOAs. The motives of manufacturers...
